Considered an exceptional work ever since its publication in 1970,
this book gathers more than 1,000 evocations that begin with the
words "I remember." It consists of phrases, most of them brief,
that flip a switch in the reader's mind by eliciting images with
which several generations from around the world have grown up. The
result is an endearing glimpse of Brainard's life and a portrait of
the culture and popular imaginary of the United States during the
1940s and 50s. "Considerada una obra excepcional desde su
publicacion en 1970, este libro recoge mas de 1.000 evocaciones que
empiezan con las palabras "Me acuerdo." Se trata de frases, en su
mayoria breves, que activan un resorte en la mente al rescatar
imagenes con las que han crecido varias generaciones de todo el
mundo. El resultado es una entranable mirada a lo mas intimo de la
vida de Brainard y un retrato de la cultura y del imaginario
popular de los Estados Unidos de los cuarenta y los cincuenta."
