Krátky popis
Laughter shakes us out of our deadness. An outburst of spontaneous
laughter is an eruption from the unconscious that, like political
resistance, poetry, or self-revelation, expresses a provocative,
impish drive to burst free from external constraints. Taking
laughter's revelatory capacity as a starting point, and rooted in
Nuar Alsadir's experience as a poet and psychoanalyst, Animal Joy
seeks to recover the sensation of feeling alive and
embodied.Writing in a poetic, associative style, blending the
personal with the theoretical, Alsadir ranges from her experience
in clown school, Anna Karenina's morphine addiction, Freud's
unfreudian behaviors, marriage brokers and war brokers to 'Not
Jokes', Abu Ghraib, Fanon's negrophobia, smut, the Brett Kavanaugh
hearings, laugh tracks, the problem with adjectives, to how poetry
can wake us up. At the centre of the book, though, is the author's
relationship with her daughters, who erupt into the text like
sudden, unexpected laughter. These interventions - frank, tender,
and always a challenge to the writer and her thinking - are like
tiny revolutions, pointedly showing the dangers of being severed
from our True Self and hinting at ways we might be called back to
it.A bold and insatiably curious prose debut, Animal Joy is an ode
to spontaneity and feeling alive.
