Work Description
This slight, fifteen page issue of The La- La Theory focuses on the author's childhood home and her love for history. Haegele reflects on the hundred years since the house was built in 1911 and how it influenced her interest in the early twentieth century. Haegele ends this zine by talking about the longevity of print and the importance of being able to archive evidence of past lives. The text of this zine is a portion of the author's full-length book Slip of the Tongue.
