The characters—young and old, queer and straight, contemporary
and historical—who inhabit Lynn C. Miller’s stories often find
themselves in defining moments and crisis situations. As they
search through the archives of memory, truth, and experience, they
seek to understand not only the past and present but themselves.
Stretching the definition of “archive,” Miller builds
interconnected webs that surprise, much like the seemingly random
papers collected in a box of materials. Fraught relationships,
mistaken identities, mysterious disappearances, and the search for
love play out in these stories. Friendships are celebrated,
ex-husbands cross the line, and Gertrude Stein attempts to write
her memoir. An unusual collection that proves greater than
the sum of its parts, The Lost Archive will haunt readers with the
intensity of its vision.
