• Bullets don't just travel through skin and bone. They travel through time.
• These words were tattooed onto the shoulder of a young woman whose father was shot during "The Troubles" in Northern Ireland. This wrenching, volatile, but also binding truth is the subject of this book. Its a truth about traumatic experiences that happen to a family, but also to a society, and to the organizations that link these intimate units with the larger context of history and culture. Its also a truth about the way trauma plays out over time, including between generations.
• Grounded in Erik Eriksons "way of looking at things", the book is a journal of encounters between clinical psychoanalysis and other disciplines, and an inquiry into what might be learned there for both. Sometimes that learning has to do with trauma: the way in which what can't be emotionally contained, thought about, or spoken in one part of a system is passed along, with disorganizing, sometimes heartbreaking consequences, to another.
• After a reflection on dignity, the book examines intergenerational trauma in families, including Eriksons. It then illustrates how trauma to organizations slips below the threshold of awareness and yet continues to wear down its members. The final section examines aspects of the larger society, including radicalization, war trauma, the pandemic, and cultural healing. What emerges is the sober yet hopeful truth that what people discover by taking their own emotional experiences seriously, though that might markedly differ from what is accepted in the everyday world, is a primary path toward recovery from trauma.
