About this book
Flatley argues that embracing melancholy can be a road back to contact with others and can lead people to an invigorated relationship with the world around them. He demonstrates that a seemingly disparate set of modernist writers and thinkers showed how aesthetic activity can give us the means to comprehend and change our relation to loss.
Reviews
Affective Mapping is one of those rare books that makes difficult theoretical propositions and counterintuitive ideas comprehensible without robbing them of any of their complexity and subtlety.

Affective Mapping is not only keen, original, lucid, and persuasive: it is profoundly antidepressant.
