Set around a small family farm on the edge of a bog, a few miles from the river Shannon, Minor Monumentsis a collection of essays unfolding from the landscape of the Irish midlands. Taking in the physical and philo- sophical power of sound and music, and the effects of Alzheimer’s disease on a family, Ian Maleney questions the nature of home, memory and the complex nature of belonging.
