Description

Viv Albertine's second book is a memoir, manifesto, and polemic that explores the complexities of life in the 21st century. The story begins with a pivotal moment when the author receives news of her mother's passing, prompting a series of reflections on sex, ageing, feminism, and other conundrums that shape modern life. As the author sorts through her mother's affairs, she discovers a mysterious bag labelled 'To throw away unopened', which becomes a catalyst for her thoughts on the human experience. This book is a bold and unapologetic follow-up to Albertine's previous work, offering a unique perspective on the world today. Through her writing, Albertine tackles a range of themes with characteristic candour and insight, making this book a compelling read for anyone interested in contemporary culture and personal narrative.
