And so for anyone who didn't really know what it means to not be
able to breathe, REALLY breathe, for generations, now you know. And
those who already do, you'll be nodding yep yep, that is exactly
how it is . . . Intimately set within the walls of a family home,
this book is an incredible artefact of the historic year we have
all lived through. We travel from the depths of despair but not
without hope; the mundane details contained within four walls
becomes our sanctuary. This is a gift in commemoration of a time
and place, of a world wide pandemic, of loss and of the murder of
George Floyd. It is a reminder of how, in uncertain times, we can
cling to the simple things for respite, for hope. A reminder of how
comforting books and artworks are in times of extreme stress.
