Psyche on the Skin charts the secret history of self-harm from the 1860s to the present day. The book describes its many forms; from sexual self-mutilation and hysterical malingering in the late Victorian period, to self-marking religious sects, to self-mutilation and self-destruction in art, music and popular culture. Drawing on her personal experiences, and written in an engaging style and containing many powerful images, Psyche on the Skin challenges the misconceptions and controversies surrounding self-harm.
