About this work
Description
"Sometimes she is a raw force of creativity; sometimes she is a numbness that starts in the palm of my hands and spreads until it is choking me from the inside up and all I want to do is puke and puke and puke it out. Azra made up her own name. She thinks the alphabet is amusing (she never allowed me to learn its proper order) so one day she named herself after it (A-Z). She uses words only to conquer them, and to play with them like a cat with a mouse. I am different. Sometimes I use her to be creative; but just as often she is the one holding me back. This book is in her name, but I am the one that has to live with her, so this is my story too. We needed to take back control over a long period of time that has left us both traumatised. It was a time of madness, and we won't be holding back from that. In fact not holding back is the point. This is a process of catharsis." -- Provided by publisher.
