We plot. We plan. We assume things are going to go a certain way. And when they don't, we find ourselves in a new place---a place we haven't been before, a place we never would have imagined on our own.

This book is an exploration of the complex relationship between suffering and creativity, driven by the belief that there is art in the agony.
