Family Secrets by Annette Kuhn

Annette Kuhn's work as a theorist of culture has won her a wide reputation for dissecting film and other images in books such as Women's Pictures and The Power of the Image. In Family Secrets, she turns her attention to the deconstruction of pictures closer to home-photographs from her own childhood and images from her shared ethnographic past-to trace a trajectory from personal to collective acts of memory.
Annette Kuhn's books include Alien Zone: Cultural Theory and Contemporary Science Fiction Cinema; Cinema, Censorship and Sexuality; The Power of the Image: Essays on Representation and Sexuality; Women's Pictures: Feminism and Cinema; Family Secrets: Acts of Memory and Imagination; An Everyday Magic: Cinema and Cultural Memory; Locatine Memory: Photographic Acts; and Little Madnesses: Winnicott, Transitional Phenomena and Cultural Experience. She is Emeritus Professor in Film Studies at Queen Mary University of London and a Fellow of the British Academy.
