Table of ContentsReviewsWhile there are many consumer health guides on migraines, O'Shea's book is unique in that it compiles selections from essays, novels, and short stories, written by well-known authors (many also migraineurs) such as Emily Dickinson, Virginia Woolf, Joan Didion, Oliver Sachs, and others lesser known, arranged around basic themes: what it feels like, what people don't see, and how to describe the indescribable. VERDICT: A valuable resource to help migraineurs see their sufferings put into words and to help friends and family, bosses and co-workers, and physicians gain more empathy and understanding. -- Library Journal Author InformationKathleen O'Shea is professor of literature and philosophy at Monroe Community College in Rochester, New York, and a sufferer of migraines. She has also published in The Greenwood Encyclopedia of World Popular Culture. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
