Sumario: | Krondorfer examines how men open their intimate lives and thoughts to the public through confessional writing. He examines writings that reflect sincere attempts at introspective and retrospective self-investigation, often triggered by some wounding or rupture and followed by a transformative experience. The book takes seriously the vulnerability exposed in male self-disclosure while offering a critique of the religious and gendered rhetoric employed in such discourse. |
