Thank you much! I so much relate to that which you share here. For 78 years I have been described as moody, quiet, sometimes depressive, and sometimes too serious or analytical and temperamental, but certainly with that I have also been described as amazingly creative, sometimes mischievous or playful, often compassionate and generous and I love music and movies that bring me to tears. I certainly contemplate death, especially as I get older now, and it doesn’t trouble me, even as I walk that path with others. Actually, over the years, I’ve learned to appreciate and value all of those parts of me. I will certainly look into your book. 🙏

Interesting introduction to the author's newest book. I am interested in the book and was glad to find this here. It's a well-written explanation of a deep but relatively obscure topic, melancoly in the arts and how we interface with it.

Great listen, thank you for this insight on an often misunderstood word! I journaled about it. I really loved the very soothing and clear narration too. Adding the book to my list!
