Darian Leader

I am reading an amazing book called The New Black; Mourning, Melancholia and Depression by UK psychoanalyst Darian Leader, Graywolf Press. It's brilliant!
. . . the exploration of human interiority is being replaced with a fixed idea of mental hygiene. The problem [depression] has to be got rid of rather than understood.
