Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Lost Ego" by Rog Phillips is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The narrative explores complex themes of identity and consciousness, centering around a protagonist who grapples with the bewildering reality of alternate identities and memories. The story delves into existential questions about the nature of self, memory, and reality through the lens of a man who finds himself inhabiting the life of different individuals, each with their own pasts and challenges. The plot follows a man named Fred Martin who suddenly realizes he is living not just as himself but as Orville Snyder, a man whose identity he doesn't recognize. As he navigates through his confusion, he becomes entangled in the lives of other characters such as David Thordsen, confronting fragmented memories and identities. Ultimately, he discovers that he possesses not just the memories but a physical form that amalgamates aspects of these personas. The climax forces him to confront his true self and leads him to embrace his identity while recognizing the scientific and moral implications of his existence, culminating in a determination to build a robot that embodies his understanding of consciousness and self-awareness.
