"the first 100 or so pages didn't interest me much; kristeva spends much of this part of the book theorizing about depression from a psychoanalytic standpoint--i didn't find it particularly insightful or helpful. but then she turns her attention to a study of melancholia in the arts and the book gets very fascinating, especially the chapter on holbein's dead christ and the chapter on duras."
"A very clinical, theoretical take on depression and melancholia. Not impressive on the phenomenological side. For that, read Jean Amery. Makes you think of things you may not have, but ultimately falls back on the old mommy-root-problem."
