Obsession
Obsession
Obsess. Obsessed. Obsession.
Obsessions are haunting. They can ignite passions, distort reflections, comsume imaginations. They can tempt, torture and tear us in two. In this diverse anthology of creative non-fiction, illustrations, photographs and poetry,Obsessionexplores what grips us and doesn't let go. Love turns into infatuation. Bodies are reflected in bedroom mirrors. Catholic shame is transformed into queer joy. A fangirl reminisces on her all-consuming celebrity crush. A bystander regrets her actions towards an addict.
Themed across love, body, identity, culture and psyche, this collection delves into our deepest desires, our darkest secrets and reckons with some of our most invisible, yet most pressing issues.
