This volume contains twelve poetic short stories and photographic images, each imbued with themes of melancholy. Black Bile was a term used in medieval medicine and was said to be one of the four humours (fluids) secreted by the body that was responsible for a person's temperament. The other three bodily humours included blood-associated with a charismatic disposition; phlegm-a relaxed disposition; and yellow bile-an irritable disposition. Black Bile was said to be secreted by the kidneys or spleen and was responsible for melancholy.Video and audio of the story, OnebyOne, is available to view on Vimeo: https: //vimeo.com/334397195
