About the book

A prize winning book of avant garde storytelling that is set in the landscape of Iceland, dealing with the author's breast cancer diagnosis and sense of self. In Afall/Trauma the body-in-crisis confronts the sense of self by storytelling - dealing with society, cultural habit, non-human entities and the land. Cancer treatment becomes a vessel to experience a 'theatre of the rural' - isolating, intimate, discomfiting and where the private commons are a stage for semi-public conversation between and about a person and the land.
