Publisher's Synopsis
Obsessive was, still is, my natural state, and I never wondered why. I didn't mind, didn't know that other people could feel at peace. I always felt like a raw nerve, but then, I thought that everyone did. Writer and journalist Marianne Eloise was born obsessive. What that means changes day to day, depending on what her brain latches on to: fixations with certain topics, intrusive violent thoughts, looping phrases. Some obsessions have lasted a lifetime, while others will be intense but only last a week or two. 'Obsessive, Intrusive, Magical Thinking' is a culmination of a life spend obsessing, offering a glimpse into Marianne's brain, but also an insight into the lives of others like her.
