Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"In Kephart’s skilled hands, an everyday item made of plant fibers becomes a repository not just for personal history, but also ‘varnished intimacies.’ The poignant irony...is that while paper serves as an instrument for history, it is as ephemeral as the lives it documents.... As she offers insight into the fascinating world of papermaking, Kephart also reveals the intimate connection between memory and its most ubiquitous—and also most fragile—receptacle. An eloquent and unique memoir.”Kirkus Reviews
