Snakes and Ladders

In today's episode I will be reading my own article: Snakes and ladders. This article is the introduction to our ongoing Nostalgia in the periphery series. This is a series of articles we launched at the start of the decade to investigate whether it could be possible to construct a collective peripheral memory. Every article in the series questions the relationship between identity and memory and what it means to feel nostalgic in the peripheral world. We are also very much interested in hearing from our readers about their own experiences nostalgia.
