FROM THE INTERNATIONALLY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF WHAT I LOVED AND A WOMAN LOOKING AT MEN LOOKING AT WOMEN

'Lucid, absorbing and vigorous'
Independent

'Richly intelligent'
Financial Times

In these fascinating essays, Siri Hustvedt shows what lies behind her fiction: an abiding curiosity about who we are and how we got that way. Covering a wide range of subjects, from the nature of desire to false memories and the paintings of Goya, she draws on the insights provided by both the arts and sciences to deepen our understanding of what it means to be human - to live, think and look.

'As an essayist, Hustvedt is the best kind: superbly clear, intellectually challenging but always human'
Independent on Sunday
