It will hurt, but it will be worth reading. It's a sad story, without a doubt, but I think there's a glimmer of hope in it too. I tore through pages, reading them as fast as my eyes allowed, yet I read very few a day because I had to rest, had to let the story sit with me, so I could contemplate its meanings. It's a story about life, plain and simple as that. Shes Come Undone was a 1992 Top Ten Book of the Year selection in People. It's a story of a man, falling apart so he can put himself back together. I Know This Much Is True won the Friends of the Library USA Readers Choice Award for best novel of 1998, the result of a national poll, and the Kenneth Johnson Memorial Book Award, which honored the novels contribution to the anti-stigmatization of mental illness. It's a story of a man, trying to find his father. It's a story of a man, being his brother's keeper. It doesn't sound like anything special, but it is.
