AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In the aftermath of a terrible tragedy, A Woman, ‘The Survivor’, emerges as a voice for those who suffered. We love her. We send her gifts and cards and roses. We watch her on the television.

'Two men sit in a car in a forest in the rain. It’s a shame about the rain because someone might catch a cold. But does it really matter now that they’ve made it to the forest?

'Then there’s A Young Girl with a long list of symptoms but no diagnosis and A Mother who’s taken vigil by her bedside with the television guide and a pen.

'Triumph traces the effect of trauma (real or imagined) and the reality of processing pain through the interwoven threads of three seemingly disparate stories.' (Publication summary)
