Kuvaus

After a moment of possible eye contact at a gig, my attraction to the band's drummer - Curt - snowballed into limerent obsession. The unsent letters documenting my crush form the basis of overlove: a non-fiction novella concerned with love, boundaries, leaky jars and the female gaze in today's context of digital communication, millennial malaise and searching online for something 'more'.

**now also a feature length web series viewable on YouTube and geraldinesnell.com/overlove**

"A striking tale of obsession and self-discovery. Lust meets distance, imagination meets boundaries, touch meets data. An exciting and meaningful mixture raising capital questions on the modern human condition and its challenges." - Slow Culture EU

"In short, this is a book that feels like a sensual archive as much as a nonfiction novella. Snell's lively, chatty tone precludes us from thinking we've discovered her diaries: overlove feels too generous, too directive towards the Other, to fit in a simple journal category... It's like she wants us to catch this lust. In its extremity, it's as exhilarating as it is relatably exhausting. This is a study in self-expression and the possibility of communication, of what it might take to bridge that gap towards the Other, and then not care if it lands or not. Is it possible to find yourself addicted to someone else's crush?" - Maria Sledmere, SPAM Zine

"overlove is an account of what it is like to fall into a private inner world shaped by the power of fantasy and attraction. Stunning prose takes us deeper into a transgressive desire than we have any right to expect, pushing beyond the boundaries of safety to an open plane of divergent thinking. overlove finds literary peers among only the most intense psychological journeys, but makes works based on paranoia look flat-footed in comparison to the nuance of its intricate fixation. Perfect for: People who feel their blood hammer as the rush of attraction shakes the ground under their feet. Or really anyone ready for a good vicarious swoon." - Folly X.O.

"overlove asks 'is this OK', but what it finds is power where shame is anticipated. It is nerd love of an amplitude that, when it breaks, eradicates past rejections as inconsequential. That in the last resort gives no fucks about propriety. As an emotion, overlove allows Snell to exult in her desire, regardless of the incapacity of others to follow. We follow in their place." - Dustin Kennedy, New Flag Media
