In this expansive collection of essays, poet and psychoanalyst Nuar Alsadir investigates the involuntary nature of laughter and its role in human connection. By weaving together personal reflection, literary criticism, and psychoanalytic theory, the author examines how the sudden eruption of joy serves as a disruptive force against the constraints of social performance and the rigidity of the self.
