It’s no secret that Jamieson Webster is one of the most original psychoanalytic thinkers at work today. I’m very excited for people to read her first book-length essay On Breathing, out late 2024 🍃
I was immediately captivated by @jamiesonwebster's voice, the expansiveness of her knowledge and experience around psychoanalysis, & the balance of rigor and openness she offers to readers. Thrilled to have her on the @CatapultStory list!
TY @williamrees0 @PressPeninsula 🥂

I wrote for @aeonmag about irritation – its pleasures and uses, and the value of taking it seriously

"I wondered what it would feel like to somewhere with cleaner air... The evidence was contested, but for me, it was this very uncertainty that opened up a new area of thought: the air as political space." Excellent from @vanessaptrsn 🍃🍃🍃

I wrote about Kafka's daily gymnastics regime (among other things) for Aeon. A big thank you to @daviesally for her superhuman editing

This is a brilliant book: about gender, America, and how we’re made and unmade by culturally available images
📢Cover reveal📢

‘Revelation is always haunted by a feeling of not knowing... Where previously there had been nothing at all, now there are depths waiting to be plumbed.’
My essay on diagnosis, waiting, and worrying has been published as a Guardian Long Read

I wrote for the new issue of Granta about a very weird time in my life
‘Above all, I sought a scan that would light up every region of my body; that would reveal, clearly and distinctly, what was the matter with it.’
