Joanne Limburg @ Edinburgh International Book Festival

A POSITIVE SPIN ON DEBILITATING AFFLICTION

Poet Joanne Limburg worries about global disasters, mainly because she thinks they may somehow be her fault. She also hates crossing the road, has a mortal dread of losing her shoes and began to dread sitting at her desk to write for fear that her chair would catch fire. In The Woman Who Thought Too Much, this OCD-inflicted writer faces up to her demons and transcribes a painful but ultimately hopeful tract about her troubled and anxious soul.
The Woman Who Thought Too Much has recently been shortlisted for the Mind Book of the Year Award (winner still tba).
