Description
Lisa Woollett's Rag and Bone is a beautifully written exploration of the past we've discarded. Through her walks along the Thames and into the Kentish estuary, she uncovers the surprising story of our changing consumer culture, revealing what we can learn from the fragments we've thrown away. As she navigates the history of our rubbish, Woollett sheds light on the unexpected connections between our throwaway culture and the world around us.
