| |  | | | From The Publisher
er inner turmoil, battling major depressive episodes to become a successful career woman, but always hostage to a hidden fear that the Beast would prove more powerful than she was. The Beast gives voice to the brain's dysfunction with eloquence and unflinching honesty, and is a survivor's courageous inquiry into the source and cure of an illness.
| | | | Annotation
This revealing biography of an illness is eloquently told by a Washington Post journalist who has triumphed over depression. Never before has a writer so clearly grasped how the brain accounts for its own dysfunction. Thompson's story is told with a poet's voice--and a journalist's respect for uncomfortable truths.
