Description: An unflinching and riveting meditation on the pain that attends every facet of existence--love and sacrifice and intimacy and beauty--a biography of torture
Review Quotes: "How rare, how wonderful, when a book arrives with the ambition and desire of this one, such a complete set of interests, fully lacking the pitfalls and pratfalls which typically characterize its innovative ilk. The work is animate in its aims, pressing you to go on. Speaking as someone who has seen what it can do, I'd suggest you do as it says."
--Amelia Gray, author of Isadora, Gutshot, and Museum of the Weird
