About this audiobook
Not memories are fireworks and first steps only. There are the rays of the sun on tattered carpet, the buzzing of a mother as she piles laundry, or the bang of screen doors in an exhausted town. In The Things That Stay, Thomas Worthington retrospects upon those silent, mundane moments which mark most profoundly.
In chapters filled with childhood living rooms and broken sidewalks, family dinners, first jobs, first love, Worthington reveals how memory hangs not on milestones, but on bits of everyday life those details most of us cannot remember, but that make us up forever.
Well, sweet, dreamy, and heavily insightful, this memoir is a lesson that our lives do not come in terms of trophies or ceremony but the little things that can remain when everything goes.
