I am reading a book by Wallace Stegner in which a historian constructs a story based on the letters of his grandparents. He says that he has no use for letters on children's illnesses, women's troubles (well, I suppose he IS simply trying to chronicle their marriage). If you stumbled upon a journal, what would interest you most? Personal revelation, a list of household items, something else? After all, we are soon to become history's discards ourselves, and the only hope we have of being remembered is by our records.
