Description
Emma Forrest's memoir is a heart-wrenching and thought-provoking account of her struggles with mental health and relationships. At just 22 years old, she found herself at a breaking point, struggling to cope with the demands of life. It was then that she met her psychiatrist, who would become a lifeline in her darkest hour. Tragedy struck when Emma's psychiatrist passed away suddenly, leaving her feeling lost and adrift. As she navigated the aftermath of his death, she also faced the end of a significant relationship, forcing her to turn to writing as a means of survival. The result is a memoir that is both devastating and dazzling, offering a clear-eyed exploration of breakdown and mania, alongside the beauty of love and loss. Through her unique voice, Emma Forrest shares her story with unflinching honesty, creating a modern-day fairy tale that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
