An excerpt of Adhan from the Afghanistan chapter of The Hollow of the Hand, read by the commanding yet soft spoken and reserved PJ Harvey, whose nervous pauses gave power and tenderness to her work. Projected behind are the videos and photographs by Seamus Murphy. This handsome collaboration traverses poignant places scarred by history. There is music to the poems, and the photos are richly insightful. Together, they are much more than journal fragments — they make the elusive substance of memory tangible. (at The Athenaeum Theatre)
