[headline]Offers the first full-length study of Cicely Saunder's idea of 'total pain', providing a fresh perspective on the ambiguous place of narrative in healthcare Introduced in 1964, Cicely Saunders' term 'total pain' has come to epitomise the holistic ethos of hospice and palliative care. It communicates how a dying person's pain can be a whole overwhelming experience, not only physical but also psychological, social and spiritual. 'Total pain' clearly summarises Saunders' whole-person, multidisciplinary outlook but is it a phenomenon, an intervention framework, a care approach - or something else? This book disregards the idea that Saunders' phrase has one coherent meaning and instead explores the multiple interpretations now current in contemporary professional discourse. Using close readings of Saunders' extensive publications, as well as archival evidence and Saunders' own personal library, Wood situates the current usage of 'total pain' in wider histories of clinical holism, questions its similarity to later ideas of narrative medicine and explores how it might express the ambiguities of bearing witness to pain and vulnerability when someone is dying. [bio]Joe Wood is an Affiliate Researcher at King's College London. He has worked in the English department at King's and as part of the Glasgow End of Life Studies Group at the University of Glasgow. His work on Cicely Saunders and narrative at the end of life has led to collaborative work with St Christopher's Hospice and the Royal College of Nursing.

Cicely Saunders and Total Pain

Malleable and True: A Hybrid Craft Anthology, the first publication of the Brink Books imprint, is a dynamic collection for readers, writers, and educators that explores the complexity and craft of hybrid writing. An unparalleled project, the anthology features work from past contributors such as Arisa White, Gyasi Hall, Elissa Washuta, Sarah Minor, Wendy Cheng, Beth Ann Fennelly, Victoria Chang, Bennett Sims, Elizabeth McTernan, Granville Carroll, and Anna Joy Springer. In this anthology, curiosity is the driving force, as select contributors from Brink Literary Journal's first ten issues re-engage with their previously published pieces in three ways, offering new work, craft prompts, and reflections on hybrid writing: <ul><li>ENGAGE: Alongside the original piece, you'll find new work that engages with the original in a fresh and meaningful way, such as updates to the original piece, process notes, new pieces that are connected to the original, and so on.</li><li>GENERATE: To foster engagement and exploration, each contributor has provided generative prompts related to their work and hybrid writing in general. This empowers readers and educators to delve deeper into the world of hybrid writing, sparking creativity and dialogue.</li><li>REFLECT: Hybrid work is notoriously slippery and hard to define. That's why we've asked our contributors to share their reflections on what hybrid writing means to them, providing valuable insight into its diverse forms and potentials.</li></ul>

A Hybrid Craft Anthology from Brink Literary Journal

Malleable and True

This novel, from Anaïs Nin's Cities of the Interior series, plays out in two parts: "The Sealed Room" and "The Café." Nin portrays her characters-many of whom represent Nin herself-with intense psychological depth as she boldly depicts eroticism, homosexuality, and androgyny using richly layered metaphors and her signature diaristic style.

What the World Might Look Like examines the way resilience stories have come to dominate the settler-colonial imagination and explores alternative approaches to resilience writing that instead offer decolonial models of thought.

(Original, Unabridged Classic)

Select Classics: Crime and Punishment

This book engages legal and literary texts in order to examine acquaintance crimes, such as rape, sexual harassment, stalking, and domestic abuse, and to challenge how the victim's physical or psychological 'freeze response' is commonly and inaccurately mistaken for her consent.

Ending the Victim Blame Game

Law, Literature, and Violence Against Women

"How do we keep doing this -- making art? Stacey D'Erasmo had been writing for twenty years and had published three novels when she asked herself this question. She was past the rush of her first books and wondering what to expect - - how to stay alive in her vocation -- in the decades ahead. She began to interview older artists she admired to find out how they'd done it. She talked to Valda Setterfield about her sixty-year career that took her from the Merce Cunningham Dance Company to theatrical collaborations with her husband to roles in films. She talked to Samuel R. Delany about his vast oeuvre of books in many genres. She talked to Amy Sillman about working between painting and other media and between abstraction and figuration. She talked to landscape architect Darrel Morrison, composer Tania on, actress Blair Brown, and musician Steve Earle, and started to see connections between them and to artists across time: Colette, David Bowie, Ruth Asawa. She found insights in own experience, about what has driven and thwarted and shaped her as a writer. Instead of easy answers or a road map, The Long Run offers one practitioner's conversations, anecdotes, confidences, and observations about sustaining a creative life. Along the way, it radically redefines artistic success, shifting the focus from novelty and output and external recognition toward freedom, fluidity, resistance, community, and survival"--

 Männer sollen stark sein, Frauen sind es angeblich nicht. Dabei bekommen sie Kinder und schmerzhafte Perioden, leiden häufiger an chronischen Schmerzen und sind stärker von häuslicher und sexueller Gewalt betroffen. Gleichzeitig wird ihr Schmerz weniger ernst genommen und schneller ruhiggestellt: Auf einen schmerzmittelabhängigen Mann kommen gut doppelt so viele Frauen.
 
 Mit »Unversehrt« legt Eva Biringer den Finger in die Wunde einer Gesellschaft, die den Schmerz der Frauen systematisch abwertet und gleichzeitig fetischisiert und in der Männerkörper in der Medizin noch immer die Norm sind.
 Ein autobiografisches Plädoyer, weiblichen Schmerz ernstzunehmen, und ein Aufruf an alle Frauen, ihn in etwas Machtvolles zu verwandeln. »Die Lektüre hat mich wütend gemacht. Herrlich wütend.

Unversehrt. Frauen und Schmerz

This fascinating book explores the numerous literary connections, themes, symbolism, and cultural and social references underlying The Silver Chair and The Horse and His Boy, the fourth and fifth books in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia series, following the same format of Paths in the Snow and Gold on the Horizon, Jem Bloomfield's popular explorations of the first three Narnia tales (both published under the DLT imprint). In Signs Among the Stones, Bloomfield considers the significance of the very different landscapes of The Silver Chair and The Horse and His Boy - subterranean caves and arid deserts, both a world away from the more familiar forests and castles of other Narnia tales - and explores what the books can tell us about Lewis's ideas on meaning, questing and storytelling.

A literary journey through The Silver Chair and The Horse and His Boy

Signs Among The Stones

The storyteller is the living memory of her time: at once an oracle, weaver, healer, warrior, witch, protectress, teacher and great mother. Her powers are to do with passing on - not only the stories but transmission itself: "what grandma began, granddaughter completes and passes on to be further completed." In contrast to the idea that a story is "just a story," pioneering postcolonial feminist theorist and filmmaker Trinh T. Minh-ha recodes ideas about truth and fantasy to tell a different story about power, civilization, history, medicine and magic. Grandma's Story shows how creative speech is connected to women's powers of enchantment, drawing upon and speaking with storytellers including Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Clarice Lispector, Maxine Hong Kingston, Leslie Marmon Silko and Zora Neale Hurston - all who may be known as "she who breaks open the spell."

Grandma’s Story

Longlisted for the National Book Critics Circle Award Many worry that criticism is suffering from a crisis of authority. In a world where everyone's a critic, what is criticism for? Since her canonical essay "On Liking Women," the Pulitzer Prize-winning critic Andrea Long Chu has established herself as a leading public intellectual and a bold cartographer of the new landscape of taste itself. Authority brings together sharp, illuminating essays on everything from musical theater to sci-fi novels, as well as an acclaimed tetralogy of personal essays first published in the magazine n+1. Throughout, Chu defies the imperative to leave politics out of art, charging fellow critics like Maggie Nelson and Zadie Smith with complacent humanism and modeling how the left might brave the culture wars with both its faculty of judgment and its sense of justice intact. In two magisterial new essays, Chu offers a fresh intellectual history of criticism's crisis of authority, tracing the surprisingly political contours of the discipline from its origins in the Enlightenment to our present age of social media. The desire to recover some lost authority, she argues, is neither new nor particularly freeing. Rather than being taken in by an endless cycle of trumped-up emergencies over the state of our culture, Authority makes a compelling case for how to do criticism in light of the actual crises, from climate change to rising authoritarianism, that confront us today.
