Sinopsis

In the 'HENRY BERGSON Premium Collection', readers are presented with a comprehensive compilation of Bergson's seminal works, reflecting his profound influence on 20th-century philosophy. The collection is marked by a distinctive literary style; Bergson employs an engaging and accessible prose that blends philosophical rigor with artistic imagery, inviting readers into a rich intellectual milieu. From his exploration of time and consciousness to his critique of mechanistic views of life, these texts resonate with the complexities of existence, situating them within the broader context of metaphysical inquiry and dynamism in philosophical thought. Henri Bergson (1859-1941), a French philosopher and Nobel laureate, emerged as a critical voice against the prevailing positivism of his time. His explorations into intuition, creativity, and the philosophy of process were influenced by various disciplines, including psychology, biology, and literature. Bergson's unique perspective championed the importance of lived experience over static definition, giving rise to ideas that would later influence existentialist and postmodern thinkers. This premium collection is a must-read for anyone interested in the evolution of modern philosophy. It serves as both an introduction and a deep dive into Bergson's ideas, inviting contemporary readers to engage with questions about the nature of time, reality, and human experience. For scholars and enthusiasts of philosophical thought alike, this collection offers invaluable insights into the mind of one of the great thinkers of the modern era.

There Is No Blue

Martha Baillie

THE GLOBE AND MAIL: BOOKS TO READ IN FALL 2023

Martha Baillie’s richly layered response to her mother’s passing, her father's life, and her sister’s suicide is an exploration of how the body, the rooms we inhabit, and our languages offer the psyche a home, if only for a time.

Three essays, three deaths. The first is the death of the author’s mother, a protracted disappearance, leaving space for thoughtfulness and ritual: the washing of her body, the making of a death mask. The second considers Baillie's father, his remoteness, his charm, a lacuna at the center of the family even before his death, earlier than her mother's. And then, third, shockingly, the author’s sister, a visual artist and writer living with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, who writes three reasons to die on her bedroom wall and then takes her life, just before the book the sisters co-authored is due to come out.

In this close observation of a family, few absolutes hold, as experiences of reality diverge. A memoir of cascading grief and survival from the author of The Incident Report.

”Martha Baillie’s novels are thrillingly, joyously singular, that rare combination of sui generis and just plain generous. That There Is No Blue, her memoir, is all of those things too, is no surprise; still, she has gone somewhere extraordinary. This triptych of essays, which exquisitely unfolds the “disobedient tale” of the lives and deaths of her mother, her father, and her sister, is a meditation on the mystery and wonder of grief and art making and home and memory itself. It made me think of kintsugi, the Japanese art of repair, in which the mending is not hidden but featured and beautifully illuminated. Baillie’s variety of attention, carved out of language, is tenderness, is love.” — Maud Casey, author of City of Incurable Women

“This is a stunning memoir, intense and meticulous in its observations of family life. Baillie subtly interrogates and conveys the devastating mistranslations that take place in childhood, the antagonism and porousness of siblings, and the tragedy of schizophrenia as it unfolds. I couldn’t put it down.” — Dr. Lisa Appignanesi, author of Mad, Bad and Sad and Everyday Madness

“Exquisite.” — Souvankham Thammavongsa, author of How to Pronounce Knife

“I am grateful for this profound meditation on family and loss.” — Charlie Kaufman, filmmaker

”This strange, unsettling memoir of outer life and inner life and their bizarre twining captures the author’s identity by way of her mother’s death, her sister’s failing battle with mental illness, and the mysterious figure of her father. It combines anguished guilt, deep tenderness, and bemused affection in highly evocative, often disturbing prose. Its brave honesty is amplified by a persistent lyricism; its undercurrent of fear is uplifted by a surprising, resilient hopefulness. It is both a plea for exoneration and an act of exoneration, an authentic meditation on the terrible difficulty of being human.” — Andrew Solomon, author of The Noonday Demon
