More interesting, I think, in concept than in execution. While there is a sparse beauty to the movement through a year (and through the years), I was more intrigued by what might have been left out and by who these people are, both the diarist and those she wrote about. Are any of them still living? How exactly are they all related? How do they know each other? Many images are lovely enough to evoke sketches in the mind, but ultimately I come away more invested in what's missing than in what's there.
