All of us have that one object that holds deep meaning-something that speaks to our past, that carries a remarkable story. Bestselling author Bill Shapiro collected this sweeping range of stories-he talked to everyone from renowned writers to Shark Tank hosts, from blackjack dealers to teachers, truckers, and nuns, even a reformed counterfeiter-to reveal the often hidden, always surprising lives of objects. | What We Keep by Bill Shapiro, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
