Pieces of You, Pieces of Me

Available for over a year

Poet and playwright Amanda Dalton examines the role of material objects in our quest to preserve or conjure our past. Our uneasy relationship with forgetting means we often keep objects to recall loved ones and hold on to memories. She details the objects she retains of her father's: his cigarette lighter, old cream cardigan and his shoe cleaning kit, as her own symbols to ward off the forgetting.
