Description
Heir to Ann Cvetkovich and Gloria Anzaldúa, From Now on, My Home is a free and liberated text about depression, in which prose poetry, literary essay, self-narrative and photography are magnificently contaminated. Nicholas Dawson's writing transforms words and images into powerful tools of transmission and pushes literary and artistic genres to their ultimate limits. "If the forms of everyday life fail to make us sensitive to the unspeakable suffering that leads to the desire to take one's own life," writes the author, "perhaps the forms of art succeed, for their part, in giving a voice, through our stories, to those who have perished before us." From Now on, My Home is one of those exceptional books that affirm the omnipotence of literature.
