Crying Book
In this symphonic work of non-fiction, Heather Christle explores the most human of behaviours: crying. Why do people cry? What are tears made of?
Christle unpacks the biological reasons for tears and investigates the influence of crying on art, politics, feminism, race and culture, all while opening up the intimate story of her own tears - from the suicide of her close friend to her family's history of depression, to her pregnancies, both planned and unplanned.In these pages, we meet a feminist artist who designs a gun that shoots fr And why is this common, crucial act so rarely discussed?
