From the astounding (Entertainment Weekly), spectacularly evocative (The Atlantic), & brilliant (Los Angeles Times) author of the NY Times bestsellers The Recovering & The Empathy Exams comes a return to the essay form in this expansive book.With the virtuosic synthesis of memoir, criticism, & journalism for which Leslie Jamison has been so widely acclaimed, the 14 essays in Make It Scream, Make It Burn explore the oceanic depths of longing & the reverberations of obsession. Among Jamison's subjects are 52 Blue, deemed "the loneliest whale in the world"; the eerie past-life memories of children; the devoted citizens of an online world called Second Life; the haunted landscape of the Sri Lankan Civil War; & an entire museum dedicated to the relics of broken relationships. Jamison follows these examinations to more personal reckonings - with elusive men & ruptured romances, with marriage & maternity - in essays about eloping in Las Vegas, becoming a stepmother, & giving birth.
Often compared to Joan Didion & Susan Sontag, & widely considered one of the defining voices of her generation, Jamison interrogates her own life with the same nuance & rigour she brings to her subjects. The result is a provocative reminder of the joy & sustenance that can be found in the unlikeliest of circumstances.
