Our protagonist's journey begins brightly - a young boy standing at the edge of the world, eager and expectant, studying its beauty, revelling in the potential within himself. But drenched in feeling, he finds our world a violent home. Slowly, the body weakens, and the mind turns inward. What follows is both brutal and beautiful: a spectacle of suffering, poetry as both wound and salve. A precise and personal autopsy, that in so being, is strikingly universal. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn clear reverence for the writers who raised him - Plath, Sexton, Nabokov, Woolf, Pessoa - James transforms his most private journals into a study of the modern mind at its most honest, like a diary that was never meant to be shared. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Richard James\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1919452613\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781919452616\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Write Bloody Publishing UK Sr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/17\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 86\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.21d","brand":"Richard James","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48997922668799,"sku":"9781919452616","price":20.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-map-of-my-vanishing-richard-james-9781919452616","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
