I've mentioned it on here before, but this is a topic in some Peter F Hamilton novels, notably the Commonwealth saga. There's an interesting take on immortality plus backups, where you can elect to archive certain memories. That way you could e.g. read Lord of the Rings over and over for the first time.
- ImaCake 9y agoI really enjoy that Hamilton envisions a world where the entirety of society has become suburbian and just kind of gently utopian and boring. Then the events of books awaken humanity's desire to explore again, and civilization starts expanding and doing exciting things.
