This hybrid collection of short prose pieces and Elliott Smith-inspired illustrations carries readers along a thin thread of memory- whether their own or the author' s past, it becomes difficult to say. Shome Dasgupta' s latest book recalls days at the movies, family heartache, and other personal experiences through soundtracks, daydreams, and attempts to remember what lingers from the spectrums of time. Whether pondering the vulnerability of a turtle or reflecting on his own fragilities, Dasgupta' s dreamy prose lets us into a series of fragments that depict a world broken yet beautiful. Histories of Memories is a testament to the burdens as well as the delights of our own narratives- how they keep us tied to each other whether we realize it or not.
