I Feel, Therefore I Am

In I Feel Therefore I Am, John James Cooper explores his emotional experiences through poems and essays. In writing this book Cooper, who describes himself as a loner and the antithesis of a people person, takes the bold step of sharing his deeply personal thoughts and experiences. Questioning whether his intense need for privacy somehow negates his life experiences, he chooses to share his "private possessions" with others. While Cooper is unafraid to examine and expose his darker thoughts, the reader ultimately comes away with hope for our human plight. In these profoundly moving pieces, the reader is encouraged to reflect on their own emotional experiences.
