520    "This first book by Julia Ridley Smith explores the death 
       of the author's parents through the objects they left 
       behind, offering both a poignant meditation on grief and a
       curious, thoughtful look at the ways that we live in a 
       material culture, where everything from a work of art to a
       prosthetic leg contains a multitude of meanings. One piece
       uses her father's hi-fi as a way of talking about jazz, 
       race, and the life of the artist, while another 
       (previously published in the New England Review) zooms in 
       on an antique mourning miniature to tell the story of her 
       mother's final days. The book combines family lore, 
       memories of growing up in the home of two antiques dealers,
       and an assessment of the narrator's literary and cultural 
       influences as a white woman growing up in the late-
       twentieth century South. Organized as a series of essays 
       exploring the things her parents left behind, The Sum of 
       Trifles traces Smith's experience of loss as her elderly 
       parents' health declines and they die, leaving the 
       narrator and her family with the task of sorting, donating,
       and finally selling the contents of their home"--
