The amazing quotes just kept coming for this one – so we let them take over the cover.

The writing is feverish, witty, intimate and addictive. As the novelist Harry Crews noted – Nothing gets you back in touch with yourself like a little of your own blood. J. D.

En route he considers how far books, learning and psychoanalysis can get us, and how much we’re stuck in the mud.
