The emotional and cultural workings of memory are considered in this collection of essays, through the lens of the author's attempts to cope with the passing of both parents while on the cusp of adulthood following a breakdown several years later.
Reissued for the first time since publication in 2005, this is an erudite, informed and deeply personal record of facing one's own sense of loss.
