Summary

If you're wondering why the inside of your head feels so strange these days, this book has the answers. "The Extreme Self" is a new kind of graphic novel that shows how you've been morphing into something else. It's about the re-making of your interior world as the exterior world becomes more unfamiliar and uncertain. Dazzling images are sourced from over 70 of the world's foremost artists, photographers, technologists and musicians, while Daly & Lyon's kinetic design elevates the language of memes into a manifesto. Over fourteen timely chapters, The Extreme Self tours through fame and intimacy, post-work and new crowds, identity crisis and eternity. Find out what's really happening to you in these accelerated tales from an even more accelerated culture. Welcome to Age of You.
