About
How would any of us feel if we could meet our teenage selves, a ghost on the road?
Everything Passes, Everything Remains is a confluence of journeys, made by Chris Dolan, his friends, and writers before him. It's a bit about cycling, a bit about walking, and a bit about buses. It's a kind of travelogue, over time, and through some lesser-known parts of Spain. It's an obsession with Spain's writers and its history, from the Inquisition to the Civil War to the questions it faces as a country today. What makes a nation, or a family for that matter, or a group of friends? In many ways it's as much about Scotland and the UK as Spain.
But mostly it's about growing up and growing older — how the past plays merry hell with the present. About friendship, loss, music, writing. And it's about memory, and the tricks it plays.
