    Interesting book you have written!
    Thanks for sharing it.

    The blurb from the book:

    The My Reading series offers personal models of what it is like to care about particular authors and works, and to show their effect upon a reader’s own thinking and development
    Shows how William James’s work searched for the meaning of existence in the overlap between literature, psychology, philosophy, and biography
    Considers William James’s acute perception of the interior’s fundamental validity in the perception of/making of the Real
    Relates to issues of mental health and the attempted flourishing of life, despite the threats of pain and depression
    Draws on the experience of the author and that of other readers
