A Haitian immigrant has nightmares that begin bleeding into his waking hours. A retired teacher loses the use of her right hand due to pain of no known origin. Noga Arikha began studying these patients and their confounding symptoms in order to explore how our physical experiences inform our identities. Soon after she initiated her work, the question took on unexpected urgency as Arikha's own mother began to show signs of Alzheimer/s disease. In The Ceiling Outside, Arikha recounts this life-changing experience and grapples with the unbreakable links between our bodies and our sense of self. Weaving together stories of her subjects' troubles and her mother's decline, Arikha searches for some meaning in the science she has set out to study. The result is an unforgettable journey across the ever-shifting boundaries between ourselves and each other."---- $c Dust jacket. 600 10 $a Arikha, Noga $x Family. 650 0 $a Mind and body. 650 0 $a Self (Philosophy) 650 0 $a Dementia. 650 0 $a Aging parents. 941 $a 5 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417020019.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220708011230.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20220708010457.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630013539.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220506010226.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DCB997E2CD0111ECB5E908A224ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
