Description
In Bloom by Cordelia Feldman is a semi-autobiographical novel about one girl's development of bipolar disorder and its impact on her life. The story follows Tanya, a high-achieving sixth-former with a comfortable lifestyle, as she navigates the challenges of adolescence and struggles to maintain control over her mental health. As Tanya's condition worsens, her relationships with friends and family begin to fray, leading to a devastating psychotic breakdown. This powerful and poignant novel offers a frank and humorous insight into the complexities of teenage friendships and the volatile nature of mental illness. Illustrated with 12 beautiful photographs by Maria Monroe, In Bloom is a thought-provoking and deeply personal account of one girl's journey towards healing and self-discovery.
