I believed the only thing of his that was mine, was his name. Something came onto the screen I had never seen before, a blurry facsimile of his death certificate. Some of it was legible. He died in San Francisco in 1970. That was a complete surprise. There was clearly more information on the screen image, but I couldn't make it out. Writing to the California Board of Health I requested a paper copy. They needed to know my relationship to the deceased. Writing in the word daughter in relation to my father was a unique experience. The paper certificate soon arrived. Everything on the document other than the date of his birth and his profession was a surprise. Suddenly I owned more than his name.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a parent goes missing how do we shape and fill the empty space?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnd how do we shape and create ourselves from our missing parents?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e A Pot from Shards, a memoir, explores absence, imagination, movement, dance, language, psychoanalysis, love, death and the creation of a life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 264\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 20, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47185396760825,"sku":"9781949093322","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/K3RjUjBJQjNnT3lkQU5yK05lVU9nUT09_5a12fcf0-a8d1-4ead-b483-76ca780f7641.webp?v=1767812731","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/a-pot-from-shards-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
