The Messy Self challenges the idea?and the ideal?of a coherent, harmonious self. The essays and poems illustrate how a flourishing self is inevitably divided, ambivalent, fractured?messy?and how the self triumphs through disorder. Written in accessible language by award-winning writers and scholars, the book offers a diversity of perspectives on the complexities of the self. With chapters on creativity, love, self-understanding, self-deception, identity, responsibility, and well-being, The Messy Self gives a range of voices to the ordinary and extraordinary divisions, fragmentations, and uncertainties that mark our everyday experience. Contributors include Martha Nussbaum, Steven Pinker, Jennifer Rosner, Oliver Sacks, Wendy Wasserstein, Robin West, C.K. Williams, and others.
