Between One and One Another

Focuses on the interplay between two modes of human existence: that of participating in other peoples' lives and that of turning inward to one's self. This title shows how the historical complexities and particularities found in human interactions reveal the dilemmas, conflicts, cares, and concerns that shape all of our lives.
