Description

Kate Camp's new book begins in John Lennon's childhood kitchen, and ends at the prow of ship, surveying what has been and what is yet to come. The internet of things speaks to loss and hope, and to the stories we weave into the things around us. Kate Camp's sharp eye for detail and refusal to avoid life's desolate moments are balanced by her humour and empathy for the world and people in it. Cover: The kitchen cooker and shelves above at Mendips, Liverpool childhood home of John Lennon. This is where John's Aunt Mimi would cook him his favourite meal of egg and chips washed down with a cup of tea. (c) Dennis Gilbert/NTPL
