Description
Caroline Kettlewell's autobiography is a candid and unflinching account of her struggles with self-harm. From age twelve until her twenties, she turned to physical pain as a way to cope with feelings of alienation and distress.
This memoir offers a unique perspective on a complex disorder that affects many young women in the US. Kettlewell's clear and introspective writing provides an honest portrayal of her experiences, shedding light on the intense emotions and sensations that drive this behaviour.
