The Bench

Recommended by

  • Samantha Oty: The Bench

    A lovely piece exploring how inanimate objects can hold so much for us--love...memories. What might just be a bench for some could be a centerpiece to someone else's love story.

    As someone who has made a bench the centrepiece of a number of plays, I had to read this and it is a joy. As ever, Brenton Kneiss writes from the heart and in these few sentences he articulates so much about love and the importance of memories. Simple, effective and written with feeling.

    A simple bench - a place where people reflect and rest. THIS bench holds memories. Memories of a love that is now gone, but still lives on within the wooden grain of this bench. Some call these memories ghosts, but BRENTON KNIESS beautifully reminds us that not all ghosts haunt us. Some give us peace and joy for what was. JUST BEAUTIFUL.
