Family trips to second-hand shops lead into a story about bodies, age and care.
Karolina Lewestam finds a route from everyday objects to the relationships that give them meaning. Choose this for reflective prose that takes ordinary routines seriously. The appeal lies in recognising how much a garment, a shopping trip or a shared habit can reveal about dependence, memory and changing family roles.
For readers interested in reported lives, ideas and the forces shaping contemporary experience.
