'Life writing at its best' TLS 'To read Holly's writing is to live it' HELENA BONHAM-CARTER [A] playful, tender, form-busting memoir' OBSERVER 'A blazing, incandescent love song to life itself' LILY KING You tell me we are made of seven billion billion billion atoms. I can feel every one of them as I write this all down. It's a rush to feel that, like falling in love. Remembering is like falling in love with you, with us, again and again. Faced with the prospect of losing her memory, a writer revisits the moments that changed her - from childhood to motherhood, loss and ill-health. Through shifting pronouns and perspectives, moving across place and time, she unpicks the fabric of fact and experience to stitch a new tapestry of personhood, both real and imaginary, mundane and profound. Heart-rending and intimate All of Us Atoms remakes the memoir, urging us to revel in our mutable, messy, multitudinous selves.
Autorenporträt
Holly Dawson is a writer, editor and teacher. She has written for the Guardian, Observer and BBC, and is Reader-in-Residence at Charleston, where she gets to indulge her passion for modernist literature. Her acclaimed plays, drawing on letters and diaries to bring to life figures such as Virginia Woolf and F Scott Fitzgerald in their own words, have been performed by actors including Helena Bonham Carter, James Norton, Miranda Richardson and Jonathan Pryce. Having grown up in Cornwall, she now lives in rural Sussex with far too many hens. @hollyjdawson hollyjdawson.com
Rezensionen
[A] playful , tender, form-busting memoir . . . All of Us Atoms contains multitudes; it's a celebration of the ties that bind us to one another, of the strength of women , and of the power of words to connect us and carry us forwards Observer
