500 The author, Mark Vonnegut, is the son of the late author,
Kurt Vonnegut.
520 More than thirty years after the publication of his
acclaimed memoir The Eden Express, Mark Vonnegut continues
his remarkable story in this searingly funny, iconoclastic
account of coping with mental illness, finding his calling
as a pediatrician, and learning that willpower isn't
nearly enough. Here is the world after Mark was released
from a mental hospital to find his family forever altered.
After nineteen rejections, Mark was accepted to Harvard
Medical School, where he gained purpose, a life, and some
control over his condition. Ultimately a tribute to the
small, daily, and positive parts of a life interrupted by
bipolar disorder, this is a wise, unsentimental, and
inspiring book that will resonate with generations of
readers.--From publisher description.
