“All those photographs broke Jackson's heart. Holiday snaps, birthdays, and Christmases, all the highlights of family life. Jackson found photographs unsettling enough at the best of times. There was a lie at the heart of the camera, it implied that the past was tangible when the very opposite was true.”
