What are the questions you’d regret not asking when they’re gone?In Your Family Story, anthropologist Elizabeth Keating helps you to uncover the unique memories of your parents and grandparents and to create lasting connections with them in the process. By asking questions that make the familiar strange, anthropologists are able to see entirely different perspectives and understand new cultures. Drawing on her lifelong work in this field, Keating has developed a set of questions that treat your parents and grandparents not just as the people who raised you, but as individuals of a certain society and time, and as the children, teenagers, and young adults they once were. Your Family Story helps you to learn about the history of your closest family members and to help you understand their perspective on the world.
