Product Information
A philosopher's personal meditation on how painful emotions can reveal truths about what it means to be truly human Under the light of ancient Western philosophies, our darker moods like grief, anguish, and depression can seem irrational. When viewed through the lens of modern psychology, they can even look like mental disorders. The self-help industry, determined to sell us the promise of a brighter future, can sometimes leave us feeling ashamed that we are not more grateful, happy, or optimistic. Night Vision invites us to consider a different approach to life, one in which we stop feeling bad about feeling bad. In this powerful and disarmingly intimate book, Existentialist philosopher Mariana Alessandri draws on the stories of a diverse group of nineteenth- and twentieth-century philosophers and writers to help us see that our suffering is a sign not that we are broken but that we are tender, perceptive, and intelligent. Thinkers such as Audre Lorde, María Lugones, Miguel de Unamuno, C. S. Lewis, Gloria Anzaldúa, and S ren Kierkegaard sat in their anger, sadness, and anxiety until their eyes adjusted to the dark. Alessandri explains how readers can cultivate "night vision" and discover new sides to their painful moods, such as wit and humor, closeness and warmth, and connection and clarity. Night Vision shows how, when we learn to embrace the dark, we begin to see these moods--and ourselves--as honorable, dignified, and unmistakably human.

Reviews
"Mariana Alessandri explores our culture's obsession with 'toxic positivity' and our fear of darker emotions like grief, anxiety and depression. Instead of encouraging our loved ones to "stay positive," maybe it's worth sitting with someone in their darkness." ---Kira Condee-Padunova, NPR, "Alessandri offers a very different understanding of clinical mood disorders, one that at first seems like bad news but ultimately proves comforting, even uplifting. . . . Ms. Alessandri makes her argument through a series of biographical sketches. . . . [she] relates these stories with insight and sensitivity. In doing so she makes a persuasive case against the superficiality of "don't worry, be happy" peppiness. . . . Ms. Alessandri certainly does us a service in calling attention to the value of dark moods. We do need better night vision." ---Andrew Stark, Wall Street Journal, "Using Plato's allegory of "The Cave," Mariana Alessandri explores our culture's obsession with "toxic positivity" and our fear of darker emotions like grief, anxiety and depression. She argues that instead of scrambling out of these moods, we should examine them as an opportunity to better understand ourselves and those around us who are experiencing their own struggles. Instead of encouraging our loved ones to "stay positive," maybe it's worth sitting with someone in their darkness." ---Kira Condee-Padunova, NPR, "A compelling, philosophically sound case for finding 'dignity' and strength in the discomforting emotions that are a natural part of the human condition. . . . Through insightful observations of temperaments at the dark end of the emotional spectrum, Night Vision reminds readers that our humanity is only truly visible in the dark and that the darkness is where we emotionally grow." ---Shahina Piyarali, Shelf Awareness, In Night Vision , Alessandri moves the needle from normalizing mental health issues to revering them. If her points resonate, you may find yourself feeling less shame and blame when 'stay positive' just isn't working., In Night Vision, Alessandri moves the needle from normalizing mental health issues to revering them.
