As the central narrative of the Lone Survivor becomes revealed through the mouths of various perspectives, Bozek investigates the language that victims and perpetrators alike use to make sense of (and attempt to forget) the aftermath of violence. From ordinary objects—family photographs, sweaters that unravel, old batteries, and lightbulbs—to the remnants of destroyed art and architecture, an annihilated nation is brought into reality, and the Lone Survivor’s story is simultaneously documented and invalidated, becoming “a memorial that will disintegrate over time, gray and fray as most of the dead did not have a chance to.”</p><p>This title is a second edition, released as part of punctum’s <ext-link xlink:href="https://punctumbooks.pubpub.org/pub/punctum-introduces-special-collections-les-figues/">Special Collections</ext-link> project.</p> 20 00 Open Access Les Figues 01 punctum books 16 punctum books Earth, Milke Way 04 01 20230720 2023 06 15 9781685710903 06 15 9781685710910 09 punctum books 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.punctumbooks.com/10.53288/0507.1.00.pdf 99 01 09 punctum books 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://punctumbooks.com/titles/the-tales/ 99 01
