‘Significant Objects’ project gives trinkets a valuable backstory
Listen to the segment, featuring co-founder Joshua Glenn and contributing writer Mark Frauenfelder, here.
It’s pretty great. Frauenfelder charmingly confesses how much he would now pay to own the object he wrote about, and reads part of his story, too. Also the show, on 89.3 KPCC in Southern California, has posted that story as excerpt on Scribd, see below.
Or you can read that short story and 99 more remarkable stories about unremarkable things in the Significant Objects book.
