Just what we need in times like these.' - Diana Wichtel 'Evocative, lyrical, surprising, Times Like These is built from a heart that bursts out of every page.' - Toby Manhire Childhood, family, and death; anxiety and release; grief and the hope of new life: these are some of the themes that underpin Michelle Langstone's debut collection. Michelle is interested in the way the concept of identity is shaken during a major event, and in the feeling world at its most raw and intimate. These essays speak to one another across a timeline, examining her world before the death of her father, and life after his passing, when she recalibrates the shape of a universe without him. Essays on acting, fertility and IVF, and intergenerational love round out a collection that is full of candour and humour. Tender, poignant and moving, these intimate essays are perfectly formed and offer a shimmering portrait of the human condition.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: NZItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 153mmItem Weight: 322gGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Personal Development, BiographyAuthor: Michelle LangstoneRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
