Descriere magazin:
n nA fascinating, totally seductive read --Eula Biss, author of Notes from No Man\'s Land: American Essays and On Immunity: An Inoculationn nA book built of brain and nerve and blood and heart. . . . Irreverent and astute. . . . Pain Studies will change how you think about living with a body. --Elizabeth McCracken, author of Thunderstruck and Bowlawayn nA thrilling investigation into pain, language, and Olstein\'s own exile from what Woolf called \'the army of the upright.\' On a search path through art, science, poetry, and prime-time television, Olstein aims her knife-bright compassion at the very thing we\'re all running from. Pain Studies is a masterpiece. --Leni Zumas, author of The Listeners and Red Clocksn nIn this extended lyric essay, a poet mines her lifelong experience with migraine to deliver a marvelously idiosyncratic cultural history of pain--how we experience, express, treat, and mistreat it. Her sources range from the trial of Joan of Arc to the essays of Virginia Woolf and Elaine Scarry to Hugh Laurie\'s portrayal of Gregory House on House M.D. As she engages with science, philosophy, visual art, rock lyrics, and field notes from her own medical adventures (both mainstream and alternative), she finds a way to express the often-indescribable experience of living with pain. Eschewing simple epiphanies, Olstein instead gives us a new language to contemplate and empathize with a fundamental aspect of the human condition.n nLisa Olstein teaches at the University of Texas at Austin and is the author of four poetry collections published by Copper Canyon Press. Pain Studies is her first book of creative nonfiction.n
