Über dieses E-Book
QUIXOTIC FISSURES is a hybrid collection of essays, stories and other writing that foreground moments of transformation, reconfiguration and regeneration of the body and the mind.
Irenosen Okojie takes as her starting point the idea of carrying trauma in the body as a legacy of blackness, carries this with her as she explores experiences of depression and illness; considers healing powers shared between generations of women in her family; or follows an artwork escaping from the colonialism of the art establishment.
The collection closes with 'The Things I Remember About My Father', a deeply moving essay in which we witness the affirmation of a deep, transgenerational bond in spite of a devastating loss. As the eight pieces that Irenosen has already completed make clear, this will be a work of boundless imagination and acute inquiry that celebrates the evolving body moving through life, with all its pain and joy.
