Memory is the central battleground of the novel. The Other’s power lies in erasing the past, a tactic borrowed from totalitarian thought. By stripping Sorensen of his name and history, the Other renders him docile. Yet, Piranesi resists not through force, but through the act of journaling. The very text we read is a technology of self-reclamation. As fragments of his old life return—visions of a cluttered London flat, a sister named Olivia—Piranesi does not reject them. Instead, he integrates them. He realizes that the Beloved House and the ordinary world are not opposites. The House is where his soul learnt wonder; the other world is where his body lived a flawed but meaningful life. The novel’s climax arrives not when Piranesi defeats the Other, but when he chooses to remember, and in doing so, chooses to be both Sorensen and Piranesi.
