Harm's Way

Más información sobre el libro

The narrative explores the significance of everyday objects as talismans in Maureen Hynes' journey through Harm's Way. Each item, from a soldier's gold fountain pen to remnants of the Australian outback, evokes powerful memories and emotions. The silk of an old parachute symbolizes longing, while the ribbed cotton of undershirts brings forth a sense of grief. Through these encounters, the book delves into themes of memory, loss, and the profound connections between material objects and personal history.
