Description

Lost Property is a thought-provoking journey through 10,000 years of civilization. A writer embarks on a road trip with her lover, renting a van and driving through France, Italy, the Balkans, Greece, and its islands. Along the way, they encounter historical figures and witness pivotal moments in human history, from the Norman Conquest to the current refugee crisis.

As she navigates this vast expanse of time, the writer begins to reckon with the complexities of humanity - both its worst excesses and its most beautiful creations. Through her experiences, she starts to see a way forward, finding solace in the beauty that exists alongside the ugliness.
