Excellent choice ma'am *grins*
My sis in law just read it and really loved it.. she's married to the brother that has suffered his whole life with depression and other mental illness.
I didn'r read it for ages. I think I had been put off it by "Prozac Nation" (and, and let me chuck "The Bell Jar" in as a link before Dr Bob nudges you to do it *l*).. don't ask me why I thought they would be similar, but I really hated Prozac Nation (except biazrrely when I was really really black *L* That was when i finally read it all the way through!).. anyway, finally read The Bell Jar and I really liked it. I found the imagary really strong in it, th colours, the "pocket books" and the like.
Can I come along to book club this month please?!
