Summary

Explores and catalogues our impulse to collect the incidental miscellanea of the past. Part observation, part confession, this book takes us on a journey of philosophical musings, cultural history, and personal memoir. It is a tribute to the realm of those "unloveable" objects, those that seem banal, common, in bad taste, or just invisible.
