notes
The essays in this collection often begin with a single daily encounter, be that a photograph, a passage of text, or even a memory. From these Moyra Davey draws fascinating and unlikely connections, linking one subject to another, whilst touching on the disparate thoughts and writings of artists and writers such as Mary Wollstonecraft, Jean Genet, Virginia Woolf, Janet Malcolm, Chantal Akerman, and Roland Barthes. Both elliptical and direct, clearheaded and personal, through these layering narratives Davey reveals the thorny yet nourishing relationship between art and life.
