Book Synopsis
Secrets and Lives offers thirteen strikingly diverse explorations of memory - its dangers and its possibilites. Its subjects range from a kidnapped woman trapped on the Isle of Skye in the 18th century to a young man in Mumbai dealing with the death of his parents. Its settings range from Vietnam and Australia to Essex, Sussex and Norfolk, its sources from folk songs and old diaries to television and Twitter. And the secrets it reveals demonstrate the endless capacity of creative nonfiction to illuminate our world in all its aspects, familiar and unfamiliar.
