On 23 July 2018, in the seaside town of Mati in Greece, Zoe Holohan and her husband of four days were enjoying the beginning of their honeymoon. Then disaster struck. Unprecedented wildfires swept through the area, killing 102 people. Zoe and Brian fled their villa, chased by the flames, running for their lives. Ultimately Zoe was one of the few survivors from the area, having been miraculously rescued from the boot of a burning car just seconds from death. She suffered severe burns all over her face and body, and her beloved husband Brian lost his life before her eyes. In this remarkable story Zoe reveals the emotional journey of grappling with the loss of her true love and partner, as well as her own incredible fight for survival, learning how to walk, talk and use her limbs again, and a future facing PTSD and a heavily scarred body --

Pandémies, catastrophes naturelles, extrémisme, terrorisme... comment penser les figures de l'extrême à l'heure où nous vivons une succession rapide de catastrophes ? Cet ouvrage traite de la question de l'extrême dans ses différentes figures : sociales, politiques, cliniques, environnementales, écologiques, etc. Nous vivons une succession rapide de catastrophes et les visages de l'extrême prennent différentes formes qui couvrent aussi bien les champs individuels que collectifs, humains ou naturels. Ces situations ont pour dénominateur commun le fait d'être stressantes, très difficiles à vivre et à supporter. Elles sont accompagnées par un vécu de panique et d'effroi et à un moindre degré, par un climat de peur ou d'étrangeté. L'extrême entretient des liens avec extrémisme, radicalisme, terrorisme, mais également avec les situations inquiétantes telles les pandémies, les catastrophes naturelles, les traumas à répétition... L'ensemble de ces phénomènes nous invite à repenser nos rapports à l'autre et à la nature, à évaluer nos conduites et à revisiter des notions fondamentales : l'intelligence humaine, le développement, l'éthique, l'économie, l'éducation, la santé, l'environnement, etc. Le futur de la civilisation et de la culture humaine va en dépendre.
