Nicole Krauss + Daphna Shohamy : Trauma and the Future Self

“Midway upon the journey of our life, I found myself within a forest dark, for the straightforward pathway had been lost.” —Dante Alighieri

Understanding one’s identity can take a lifetime. With reference to Dante’s Divine Comedy, Nicole Krauss’s latest novel, Forest Dark, takes readers through the thicket of human emotion and sometimes out the other side. Together with neuroscientist Daphna Shohamy, Krauss will investigate what roles memory, experience, and even trauma have on the development of the future self.
