Notes
Description
"Drawing on nine years of research, Axiomatic explores the ways we understand the traumas we inherit and the systems that sustain them. In five sections-each one built around an axiom about how the past affects the present-Tumarkin weaves together true and intimate stories of a community dealing with the extended aftermath of a suicide, a grandmother's quest to kidnap her grandson to keep him safe, one community lawyer's struggle inside and against the criminal justice system, a larger-than-life Holocaust survivor, and the history of the author's longest friendship. With verve, wit, and unwavering critical dexterity, Tumarkin angles her subjects to the light to ask basic questions about loss, grief, and how our particular histories inform the people we become in the world. Axiomatic introduces an unforgettable voice"--,Provided by publisher.
