A Life Discarded: 148 Diaries Found in a Skip by Alexander Masters

mysterious reflective sad fast-paced

5.0

I'm completely blown away by this book! It's like nothing else I have ever read but it reminds me of Laura Cummings' On Chapel Sands. Both books explore memory and biography, our assumptions and the challenges to them. I read this in one go. It was superb.
