JM Coetzee: Photographs from Boyhood

Abstract

There is a joke I especially like in the US version of The Office: Erin, the receptionist, takes the last photo on a disposable camera at an office party, sees it has reached the end of the roll and throws it in the bin saying, ‘Oh, all done!’. Then in a talking head interview, she explains, ‘Disposable cameras are fun, but it does seem wasteful, and you never get to see your photos’.
