🎉COMING SOON – AND SO DID I by Malachi Whitaker

📖Spanning the years 1937-1938, ‘And So Did I’ is both a record of daily existence and an impressionistic account of Whitaker’s life told through memories, speculations, and daydreams. Decades ahead of its time, it is a precursor to the genre-bending work of writers like Annie Ernaux and Deborah Levy.

❓‘What is the use of life?’ when danger lurks all around, Whitaker asks. Her determination to find joy in plants, insects, children, music, food and books will resonate with readers asking similar questions today.
