Ordinary Notes by Christina Sharpe

A singular achievement, Christina Sharpe's 'Ordinary Notes' explores, with immense care, profound questions about loss, pain and beauty; private memory and public monument; art; complexity; and the shapes of Black life that emerge in the wake.

 In a series of 248 brief and urgent notes that cumulatively gather meaning, artifacts from the past - both public ones and the poignantly personal - are skilfully interwoven with present-day realities and possible futures, intricately constructing an immersive portrait of everyday Black existence.
