Bøger af Alice Miller

The poems in this extraordinary full-length collection by Alice Miller ask you to force yourself beyond your own boundaries. They are curious, restless, bold; they marry lyrical music and intricate metaphor as they search for other human voices beyond the rumblings of the apocalypse and the stubbornness of myth.

The text connects adult creativity with childhood traumas and attempts to undermine our acceptance of repressive parental figures by reliving our childhood history. This work aims to answer such questions as why Hitler became a mass murderer and why Buster Keaton never smiled.

Collected for the first time, Alice Miller's most helpful, therapeutic, and invaluable answers to hundreds of readers' letters.

A study of child abuse. Through her paintings, Alice Miller confronts the truth and pain of her own childhood. She meditates on her spontaneously executed watercolours, and offers an analysis of the roots of creativity in the authentic self's struggle for survival.
