Down to a Sunless Sea - Softcover

Down to a Sunless Sea

Soft cover. Zustand: Fine. Down to a Sunless Sea plunges the reader into uncomfortable situations and into the minds of troubled characters. Each selection is a different reading experience -- poetic, journalistic, nostalgic, wryly humorous, and even macabre. An award-winning essayist and historical novelist, Mathias B. Freese brings the weight of his twenty-five years as a clinical social worker and psychotherapist into play as he demonstrates a vivid understanding of -- and compassion toward -- the deviant and damaged. In Down to a Sunless Sea, the desire to be understood -- to be felt -- is given ardent, strong, and imaginative voice. Sometimes the world has not been receptive, but Freese knows himself, and by knowing himself he knows us pretty well, too. The inability or refusal to feel for others is the ultimate isolation. To deny the humanity of a fellow human being is to deny one's own humanity. It is a charade that manifests itself in cruelty again and again in order to justify its own being. Evil exists in the world because it is allowed. To stand against it often means standing alone. Book. Artikel-Nr. 11892
