This collection of essays explore themes of shyness, solitude, bodily limitation and personal transformation, recalling the work of Claire-Louise Bennett and Maggie Nelson.
These essays are stimulated by a broad range of spectacles, including a generation of Japanese shut-ins, a French postman who built a fortress by hand and a boy with a rare skeletal disease.
