Synopsis
‘Style-wise, this is Brian Dillon’s Essayism crossed with David Sedaris . . . it’s learned, with a breath-taking frame of reference, but also witty and self-effacing, revelling in life’s smuttiness and fuck-ups.’ Bookmunch
Endlessly surprising and entertaining, Humiliation is an essay-in-fragments unlike any other you will read on the human condition. With a disarming blend of personal reflec¬tion and cultural commentary, Wayne Koestenbaum walks us – at times cajoles us – through a spectrum of mortifications, in history, current events, literature, art, music, film, and in his own life.

Paperback. Condition: Fine. The lives of people both famous and obscure are filled with moments when their dirty laundry sees daylight. At such times we witness the reversibility of success, of prominence, but also come to terms viscerally with our own most vulnerable selves. We cannot stop watching the scene of shame, identifying with it, absorbing its nearness, relishing our immunity, even as we acknowledge the universality of the human stain, the uneasy predicament of living in our own bodies -.
