Everybody: A Book About Freedom by Olivia Laing review – free your body and your mind will follow


Everybody:
A Book About Freedom begins in 1999. Aged 22, she saw an advert – “pink, with a hand-drawn border of looping hearts” – in a herbal pharmacy in Brighton, attributing all kinds of physical symptoms to energy “stuck… from past traumas” and promising that it “could be loosened and induced to move again by way of body psychotherapy”.
It led her to a therapist, Anna, who “practised in a small, soupy room at the top of her house” with methods that, to say the least, were idiosyncratic. “Sometimes Anna would take a grinning [toy] monkey and clutch it to her chest,” Laing writes, “talking about herself in the third person, in a high-pitched, lisping voice.” Anna’s eccentric approach to massage relied less on kneading than “seeming instead to directly command muscles to unclench”.

Olivia Laing, whose most recent book of essays is "Everybody: A Book About Freedom." (Sophie Davidson)
Olivia Laing’s fifth work of nonfiction, “Everybody: A Book About Freedom,” is a compendium of echoes. The approach recalls much of her spirited nonfiction work: “The Trip to Echo Spring,” which traces the link between alcohol and the work of writers such as F. Scott Fitzgerald, John Berryman and Raymond Carver; or “The Lonely City,” an examination of urban loneliness through the lens of artists Henry Darger and David Wojnarowicz, among others.
