With a masterful, poetic voice, Margaret\u003cbr\u003eRandall uses talismanic objects and photographs as launching points for her nonlinear\u003cbr\u003enarrative. Through each \"object,\" Randall uncovers another part of herself, starting in a\u003cbr\u003emuseum in Amman, Jordan, and ending in the Latin American Studies Association in\u003cbr\u003eBoston. Interwoven throughout are her most precious relationships, her growth as an\u003cbr\u003eartist, and her brave, revolutionary spirit.\u003cbr\u003eAs Randall's adventures often coincide with important moments in history, many of her\u003cbr\u003eobjects provide a transcontinental glimpse into social upheavals and transitions. She\u003cbr\u003eshares memories from her years in Cuba (1969 to 1980) and Nicaragua (1980 to 1984), as\u003cbr\u003ewell as briefer periods in North Vietnam (immediately preceding the end of the war in\u003cbr\u003e1975), and Peru (during the government of Velasco Alvarado).\u003cbr\u003eIn her introduction, Randall states, \"objects and places have always been alive to me.\"\u003cbr\u003eHer history too is alive, as much of a means to consider our own present as it is to\u003cbr\u003eglimpse her vibrant past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMargaret Randall\u003c\/b\u003e is a feminist poet, writer, photographer and social activist.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"New Village Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50677281882386,"sku":"9781613321140","price":23.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_8dbfad34-5800-422f-ab61-ed64fe685198.jpg?v=1733891882","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/my-life-in-100-objects-9781613321140","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
