abstract:

Glenn Patterson's The Rest Just Follows (2014) participates in the work of memory to enable the future both for individuals and communities by staging three different modes of returning to the past, which enter into a dialogue not only with each other, but also with current political and cultural discourses in Northern Ireland, most notably, with the ongoing practice of truth recovery and the widespread assumption that it can aid healing and reconciliation.
