"Memory" is a flash fiction short story by American horror and science fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, written in 1919 and published in May 1923 in The National Amateur.
""Memory"" uses many of Lovecraft's common images and ideas, such as relics of the deep past and things ""without name"". Also, his fondness for vast, monolithic ruins (a favourite with many other Cthulhu and horror writers) is evident in the intricate description found in this page-long story."
