If creativity is the highest expression of the life impulse, why do
creative individuals who have made lasting contributions to the
arts and sciences so often end their lives? M.F. Alvarez addresses
this central paradox by exploring the inner lives and works of
eleven creative visionaries who succumbed to suicide. Through a
series of case studies, Alvarez shows that creativity and suicide
are both attempts to authenticate and resolve personal catastrophes
that have called into question the most basic conditions of human
existence.
