Every day, she waited for an object to come to her attention; every night, she wrote its story. Calendar is a book about tuning in to the lives of the things around us, and the powerful connections to time and memory that objects hold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVanessa Berry\u003c\/strong\u003e is a writer of autobiography and creative nonfiction, with interests in memory, history, place, archives and objects.
