Abstract

In "The Stars in the Tunnel," Marianna explores the reason we experience suffering in our lives through the lens of personal essays, poetry, and experimental fiction. She works to fit diverse genres together to create a composite narrative that draws a reader to see hope in the face of personal tragedy, mental health difficulties, and realizing everything you thought was wrong. She works to push us forward into our own next chapters with joy in the midst of pain.
