This literary coming-of-age memoir, set in '60s-'70s Los Angeles, traces a daughter's experience of her mother's schizophrenia and its lasting fallout before an extraordinary sign teaches her that love endures beyond loss.
Living in the Long Shadow is a poignant memoir told in dual timelines: the formative years of Suzanne's childhood and the two weeks following her mother's suicide when Suzanne is eighteen. With honesty and grace, Suzanne traces what it means to grow up in the shadow of mental illness--navigating her need for guidance and belonging, the fear of inheriting her mother's illness, and the journey of loving a mother unable to live with or without her medication. Ten years after her mother's passing, an extraordinary sign affirms the enduring presence of her love--and Suzanne's grief begins to make room for acceptance. This is a story of resilience: the difficult choices that lead toward healing, the friendships and family bonds that sustain us, and the way love can reach us even after death."Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
