Abstract
In this essay, I juxtapose mundane moments in life with two other time experiences. One is the larger sweep of time expressed in a genealogy or a family history, and the other is the time-out-of-time experience of trauma. Family histories work to contain experience, to offer explanations. And, in sharp contrast, often simultaneous to such stories, trauma happens, bursting though other experience, refusing containment.
