Bibliophobia: A Memoir is Sarah Chihaya’s debut memoir and a work of literary self-examination by a critic and professor whose life has been shaped, unsettled, and sometimes endangered by reading. Rather than offering a conventional celebration of books, Chihaya studies the ambivalence of literary attachment: why some books comfort, why others wound, and why the most formative reading experiences can be difficult to revisit. The memoir blends personal narrative with literary criticism, using books as points of pressure through which questions of depression, identity, memory, race, belonging, and intellectual formation emerge. Its central idea is that reading is not always benign or therapeutic. Books can become life ruiners, works that enter the mind with such force that they alter a reader’s relation to the world and the self. The result is a memoir about reading as intimacy, dependence, fear, and survival, written against simpler claims that literature automatically heals or improves us.
