Calle's projects have frequently drawn on episodes from her own life, but this book-part visual memoir, part meditation on the resonances of photographs and belongings-is as close as she has come to producing an autobiography, albeit one highly poetical and fragmentary, as is characteristic of her work. The tales-never longer than a page-are by turns lighthearted, humorous, serious, dramatic or cruel. Each is accompanied by an image; each offers a fragment of life. Calle herself is the author, narrator and protagonist of her stories and photography. Her words are somber, chosen precisely and carefully. She offers up her own memories-childhood, marriage, sex and death-with brilliant humor, insight and pleasure. By turns serious, hilarious, dramatic or cruel, these real-life stories represent a form of work in progress recounting fragments of her life.","brand":"RANDOM HOUSE","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":43032862326873,"sku":"PR915537","price":62.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2551\/5502\/files\/image_TIBIESNPCIMG.jpg?v=1769919014","url":"https:\/\/smartfox.co.nz\/products\/sophie-calle-true-stories-new-edition","provider":"SmartfoxNZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
