The Bright Light of Yoga
My earliest memories already carry the imprint of anxiety and depression—right at the beginning of what I can recall.

Beauty Can Be Terrifying
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke is, aside from being my favourite fiction book I have ever read, a perfect example of beauty and the sublime.
