Description

So sad today? Many are. Melissa Broder is too. How and why did she get to be so sad? And should she stay sad?So sad today? Many are. Melissa Broder is too. How and why did she get to be so sad? And should she stay sad?She asks herself these questions over and over here, turning them into a darkly mesmerising and strangely uplifting reading experience through coruscating honesty and a total lack of self-deceit.Sexually confused, a recovering addict, suffering from an eating disorder and marked by one very strange sex fetish- Broder's life is full of extremes. But from her days working for a Tantric nonprofit in San Francisco to caring for a severely ill husband, there's no subject that Broder is afraid to write about, and no shortage of readers who can relate. When she started an anonymous Twitter feed @sosadtoday to express her darkest feelings, her unflinching frankness and twisted humour soon gained a huge cult following.In its treatment of anxiety, depression, illness and instability; by its fearless exploration of the author's romantic relationships ('romantic' is an expanded term in her hands); and with its inventive imagery and deadpan humour, So Sad Today is radical. It is an unapologetic, unblinkingly intimate book which splays out a soul and a prose of unusual beauty.
