Here is an example of a fragment of an autobiography in list format — a list of residential addresses, i.e., places where I had my own bed, desk and books and received mail; in other words places I could call my ‘home’.
The list is based on public register data, my own archive, and my memory.
When making the list I realized that I have very few photos of the physical settings in my life.
