Having survived a profoundly dysfunctional upbringing only to find herself hospitalized and facing a dual diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder and bipolar II disorder, Mailhot writes her way out of trauma while simultaneously writing a memorial to her mother, a reconciliation with her father, and an elegy on the complexities of loving someone beneath the burden of shame. In finding her own voice, Mailhot shows us how to seize control of our own stories.
