Andrew Solomon

Andrew Solomon is an American writer, known for his works on psychology, politics, and culture, particularly his book 'The Noonday Demon' which explores depression.


"It's a strange poverty of the English language, and indeed, of many other languages, that we use this same word, 'depression' to describe how a kid feels when it rains on his birthday, and to describe how somebody feels the minute before they commit suicide."
