Download Out Came the Sun: Overcoming the Legacy of Mental Illness, Addiction, and Suicide in My Family AudioBook Free
A moving, persuasive memoir about growing up and escaping the tragic legacy of mental condition, suicide, addiction, and depression in another of America's most famous people: the Hemingways. She starts her eyes. The area is dark. She hears yelling, smashed plates, and needs it was all an awful dream. Nonetheless it isn't. This is exactly what it was like growing up as a Hemingway. In this particular deeply moving, searingly honest new memoir, celebrity and mental health icon Mariel Hemingway stocks in candid depth the storyline of her stressed childhood in a famous family haunted by major depression, alcoholism, condition, and suicide. Given birth to just a few months after her grandfather, Ernest Hemingway, taken himself, it was Mariel's objective as a girl to escape the desperate pattern of severe mental health issues that had plagued years of her family. Ornamented by a family tortured by alcoholism (Mariel's parents), major depression (her sister, Margaux), suicide (her grandfather and four other people of her family), schizophrenia (her sister, Muffet), and cancer tumor (her mother), it was all the young Mariel could do to keep her mind. Inside a compassionate voice, she uncovers her painful battle to stay sane as the youngest child in her family, dealing with the chaos by becoming obsessive about her food, schedule, and organization. The twisted legacy of her family hasn't quite let go of Mariel, however in this memoir she starts up about her claustrophobic matrimony, her faltering behaving profession, and her embracing religious healers and charlatans for solace. Mariel has finally written a story of triumph about learning to conquer her family's demons and producing love and profound compassion for the kids. Finally she can tell the true story of the tragedies and troubles of the Hemingway family, and she gives an audiobook that beckons comparisons with Mary Karr and Jeanette Surfaces.
