Linda Gray Sexton recounts her journey learning to cope with the suicide of her mother, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Anne Sexton. As the course of Sexton’s life grows to parallel that of her mother’s, she struggles desperately to escape her mother’s fate and avoid passing down the legacy of suicide onto her own children. The book vividly describes the complex set of emotions that afflict Sexton as a loved one of somebody struggling with mental illness and suicide.
