It's funny you should ask that because those precisely happen to be characteristics of the book in your picture, so you should start with that book

The Prague Cemetery.

Good rec. First time I've seen this mentioned on this board. That book is exactly what OP is looking for

You must be new here.

The Book of the New Sun. The protagonist has an eidetic memory. But I'm guessing you've already read it, since it's the most famous thing Wolfe wrote.

Chasm City, if you don't hate sci-fi noir.

Oh, I read pretty much everything, and that subgenre enabled Altered Carbon, so I'm amenable to that. PKD's Flow My Tears is a variation of the theme, and I'd have accepted that as a response.

As close as science fiction is to my essential being, I'm currently more enthused by realist fiction, as instantiations of which offer more practical experience, in case I awaken in a random hotel without memory of the near past.
