Descriere magazin:
Martha Baillie\'s richly layered response to her mother\'s passing, her father\'s life, and her sister\'s suicide is an exploration of how the body, the rooms we inhabit, and our languages offer the psyche a home, if only for a time. Three essays, three deaths. The first is the death of the author\'s mother, a protracted disappearance, leaving space for thoughtfulness and ritual: the washing of her body, the making of a death mask. The second considers
Baillie\'s father, his remoteness, his charm, a lacuna at the center of the family even before his death, earlier than her mother\'s. And then, third, shockingly, the author\'s sister, a visual artist and writer living with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, who writes three reasons to die on her bedroom wall and then takes her life, just before the book the sisters co-authored is due to come out. In this close observation of a family, few absolutes hold, as experiences of reality diverge. A memoir of cascading grief and survival from the author of The Incident Report.
Martha Baillie\'s novels are thrillingly, joyously singular, that rare combination of sui generis and just plain generous. That
There Is No
Blue, her memoir, is all of those things too, is no surprise; still, she has gone somewhere extraordinary. This triptych of essays, which exquisitely unfolds the disobedient tale of the lives and deaths of her mother, her father, and her sister, is a meditation on the mystery and wonder of grief and art making and home and memory itself. It made me think of kintsugi, the Japanese art of repair, in which the mending is not hidden but featured and beautifully illuminated. Baillie\'s variety of attention, carved out of language, is tenderness, is love. - Maud Casey, author of City of Incurable Women This is a stunning memoir, intense and meticulous in its observations of family life. Baillie subtly interrogates and conveys the devastating mistranslations that take place in childhood, the antagonism and porousness of siblings, and the tragedy of schizophrenia as it unfolds. I couldn\'t put it down. - Dr. Lisa Appignanesi, author of Mad, Bad and Sad and Everyday Madness Exquisite. - Souvankham Thammavongsa, author of How to Pronounce Knife I am grateful for this profound meditation on family and loss. - Charlie Kaufman, filmmaker
