Minor Histories

by Mira Keskin

An intimate history of ordinary objects and the lives gathered around them.

Across twelve elegant essays, Mira Keskin follows the hidden biographies of domestic things—from a chipped porcelain cup to a hand-sewn atlas—and reveals how private objects carry public histories.

From the book
“History rarely announces itself. More often, it waits in drawers, folded into linen, holding the shape of a hand no longer there.”
Why read it
  1. A distinctive voice of uncommon precision
  2. An immersive inquiry into memory and place
  3. A beautiful object, designed for the permanent shelf
