Description
What makes us nostalgic? What thoughtful ghosts from our pasts haunt our imaginations - and our intellects? Sarah Einstein's Self Portrait in Apologies explores past mistakes as well as the different kinds of love that need no apology. These fourteen essays contemplate loneliness and companionship, regret and desire, uncertainty, and wisdom. Self Portrait charts both love and loss with a sharp mind, a generous heart, and an eye for the dark beauties of a dappled life.
