If you said \"timeless artistic genius\", stop sucking up--the answer is ecstatic epilepsy. In this hilarious and moving dispatch from the frontlines of neurodiversity, Jones chronicles life with these terrifying-yet-beautiful grand mal seizures. Characteristic of Jones's condition are attacks which leave her with what Zen Buddhists sometimes refer to as a \"beginner's mind\": a vast, open expanse of headspace, coupled with a creative euphoria.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith bracing candor and humility, Jones describes living with chronic illness, single motherhood, and her day-to-day life as a hapless writer in NYC. Above all, Jones reminds us to fight the battle for becoming who we are supposed to be--no matter how much flopping around on the ground and wetting ourselves we have to do to get there.","brand":"Imagine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44209922310399,"sku":"9781623545284","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781623545284_s600x595.jpg?v=1782147444","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781623545284","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
