{"product_id":"9780702259890-secondhand-traumata","title":"Traumata","description":"A brilliant, fiercely profound work of creative non-fiction in the vein of Maggie Nelson's The Argonauts.\n\nIn this extraordinary book, Meera Atkinson explores the ways trauma reverberates over a lifetime, unearthing the traumatic roots of our social structures and our collective history. \n\nUsing memoir as a touchstone, Atkinson contemplates the causes of trauma and the scars it leaves on modern society. She vibrantly captures her early life in 1970s and '80s Sydney and her self-reflection leads the reader on a journey that takes in neuroscience, pop psychology, feminist theory and much more. \n\nSearing in its truthfulness and beauty, Traumata deals with issues of our time -intergenerational trauma, family violence, alcoholism, child abuse, patriarchy - forging a path of fearless enquiry through the complexity of humanity.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49139169853659,"sku":"9780702259890-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c2882b56-c856-4fac-a38b-abb322c11d81.jpg?v=1786721205","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780702259890-secondhand-traumata","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
