Writer Between Worlds

Soulful writing about humans and places

“The left hemisphere is the speaking hemisphere: the right hemisphere has literally no voice. The attempt to make the implicit explicit radically alters its nature. (…) metaphor and narrative are often required to convey the implicit meanings available to the right hemisphere and in a left-hemisphere-dominated culture, metaphors and narratives are disregarded as myths and fables, or, at worst, downright lies.”

Iain McGilchrist – The Master and His Emissary: The Divided Brain and the Making of the Western World (2018)
