But he’s pretty shrewd and he doesn’t give up easily. That’s fortunate because <em>Memory Book</em> (Penguin), Engel’s 11th Benny Cooperman mystery, is one of the most bizarre cases he (or any other detective) has ever faced. </p> <p>In 2001 a stroke left author Howard Engel with a condition known as <em>alexia sine agraphia</em>, a condition that allows him to write but not to read. As it turns out “not giving up” is a trait he shares with his fictional detective. </p> <p>Engel wrote about his painstaking recovery in a memoir called <em>The Man Who Forgot How to Read</em> (HarperCollins). That book is the <em>Book Club</em>* feature this month.
