Description
Through a series of finely detailed and focused vignettes from The Archaeologist’s Daughter’s professional career, Antony Christie evokes the passion and dedication entailed in the experience of fieldwork. Perceptive atmospheric poems describe both the patience and the excitement involved as she uncovers remains and artefacts from which to infer a history. And like the discipline of archaeology itself, the narrative provides hints and clues from which much more can be inferred; this replication of the archaeological process allows the reader to glimpse the personal and psychological life beyond the professional.
