THE "I" OF THE STORM

Focusing on a phenomenological approach, the book delves into the personal experiences of eight individuals who took their own lives, analyzing their diaries to uncover their unique thoughts and feelings. The author, Lester, also examines suicide notes, poetry, letters, and online expressions from those who died by suicide, alongside a recording of a young man shortly before his death. This exploration aims to provide insights into the inner workings of the suicidal mind, moving beyond traditional explanations to foster understanding of this complex phenomenon.
