Description:
A curator's journey to uncover the stories behind everyday objects and preserve history for the common good




After thirty years confined within museum walls, a restless history curator steps out for air. In this book of essays, Anne-Marie Conde grants herself freedom to ask fresh questions about the significance of objects and places within the lives of ordinary people. Cemeteries, junk shops, war memorials. Stones and scraps and scrawls. These are where this author goes for inspiration.




Whether it's a wet greasy pavement in Hobart or a message in chalk in Sydney- Conde can coax a historical narrative out of the most meagre sources. Along the way she asks why anyone would offer a potato as a gift to a prime minister? How could this humble vegetable help us think about Australia's past?




Throughout, Conde casts a patient and gently curious gaze over her subjects. Many writers are fascinated by unrecorded lives, but where there are records, Conde is sure to find them.

As Good as My Skims. Seriously!
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: Small, Color: Black
Honestly, this top is as good as my Skims! The fit is flattering, the fabric feels smooth and supportive, and it keeps its shape wash after wash. I wear it for workouts, errands, and even layering under blazers — it’s that versatile. Great quality for the price.

Best LULU dupe

good fit for cheap!
Special Size: Short Sleeve, Size: Small, Color: White
I like the material it’s more athletic, not see through, cuts off at a flattering length, good stretch my only point deduction is that I wish it took in a bit more in the waist to fit a bit better I wear a 32D bra with a 25-26in waist

Cute but beware of the length
Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red, Special Size: Long Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Bright Red
It’s cute but the fit is off. If you’re short like me (5’4) then the leggings and sleeves are long but overall it’s cute. I just don’t wear it often because of the fit.

So soft!
Special Size: Short Sleeve, Size: X-Large, Color: Navy
Bought this for the gym and I love it! It’s so soft and breathe able. I don’t get too hot and it’s the perfect length. I’ve bought it in 2 colors!
