Through The Looking Glass: Examining Mental Illness and Author Experience in Literature
More lists...
“Although the memoir can be heartbreakingly sad, it builds to a stirring moment of understanding when the author fully recognized her brother’s determination in the face of what was later diagnosed as bipolar disorder. Overall, this sharply conceived book shines a light on the challenges of twinship and offers a deeply personal account of a family coping with mental illness.
A richly detailed and affecting remembrance.”
