Sister Language by Christina Baillie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Sister Language is a collaboration, composed mainly of letters and other writings, between two sisters, one of whom, Christina, is schizophrenic. In the careful building of a bridge between sisters, a prose nonpareil is achieved, and a linguistic \"bridge\" created between readers and the authors, one of whom's deep isolation is in this way diminished.\"A playful duet, a radiant howl, a swirling portrait of schizophrenia and sisterhood-this beautiful, wildly-groomed book magnifies two brilliant minds in motion. It is a story of what happens when 'everyday' language mutinies and shatters, leaving a fragile chimera of coherence. But mostly it's a tale of unshakable, vulnerable, writerly love that brought me to tears.\" - Kyo Maclear, author of Birds Art Life | Sister Language by Christina Baillie, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
