Life’s trajectories are unpredictable despite our well-intended plans. It is only when we look back that life attracts an incremental, linear and chronological continuum. The anthropologist Anthony P Cohen (1995) says that who a person is at any given time depends upon who is being asked and who is doing the asking.
