![]() ![]() ![]() I do not try and explain that it isn’t that you want to die. “ Normal people say, I can’t imagine feeling so bad I’d actually want to die. She seeks small, dark holes for months on end. Since then, she’s consulted doctor after doctor, with each diagnosis different and each result the same. It begins at 17, when “a little bomb” went off in Martha’s brain. The book is her reflection upon her past life - her battles with mental illness and what ultimately made her marriage fall apart. Martha moves back to her parent’s house in London. Soon after, her husband, Patrick, leaves her. She’s a British columnist that writes about all things food. The reader meets her at her 40th birthday party in Oxford. She just doesn’t know what (not for now, anyway). Meet Meg Mason’s Martha - a woman who knows that there’s something wrong with her. This is your reminder to read/listen to it alone so you don’t seem like a madman. Meg Mason’s Sorrow and Bliss may also make you laugh uncontrollably. This is your reminder to grab some tissues. Meg Mason’s Sorrow and Bliss may make you weep. ![]()
