- Samenvatting:
- As the author recently moved to Manhattan, he fulfilled a lifelong dream: to write his own version of Walter Benjamin’s “Unpacking My Library” while reorganizing his 10,000 volumes. Unpacking My Library, or, The Autobiography of Teddy is the tale of this uprooting, a series of meditations on place, time, and loss. In the course of this displacement, the author explores memory and nostalgia as he encounters a Pulcinella pincushion doll, a roly poly Daruma, and the strangest and most intimate of interlocutors with whom the book is co-authored: his first Teddy Bear.
