About this audiobook
December 2017. Montreal. A blizzard. A psychotherapist with twenty years of clinical experience collapses on a borrowed apartment floor and wakes up behind glass. For two years he lives inside the very condition he has spent his career treating in others, present but unreachable, watching his own life from a distance no clinical framework can close.
The Floor Beneath the Floor is Tidal Grace's memoir of depersonalization, written from both sides of the glass. It is also an argument: that the territory contemporary medicine treats as pathology has been mapped, with extraordinary precision, by contemplative traditions reaching back twenty-five centuries. The seventeen-year-old searching online at two a.m. and the Buddhist monk on a ten-year retreat are describing the same experience. One has a map. The other does not.
For the two a.m. Googlers. You are in ancient territory. You are not alone.
