Redux is a collection of memoir shorts, observations, and one-liners on the subject of "identity" and "belongings." As a intercontinental transplant, I have often packed my bags, discarding up to 95% of my belongings each time to make the move financially feasible and practical. The perspective changes. The evidence of the past is left behind. The past is out of context. Identity shifts and changes, grows and fades, but what, I wondered, is at its core? What do we remember, what do we hang on to, what do we say after a lot of new starts and reinventions to describe our identity? In Redux, I have attempted to build the story of my identity out of select disparate pieces of a life. Theme and coherence were surprising.
