After the agony of witnessing her mother's multiple--and ultimately
successful--suicide attempts, Linda Gray Sexton, daughter of the
acclaimed poet Anne Sexton, struggles with an engulfing undertow of
depression. Here, with powerful, unsparing prose, Sexton conveys
her urgent need to escape the legacy of suicide that consumed her
family--a topic rarely explored, even today, in such poignant
depth.
Linda Gray Sexton tries multiple times to kill herself--even though
as a daughter, sister, wife, and most importantly, a mother, she
knows the pain her act would cause. But unlike her mother's story,
Linda's is ultimately one of triumph. Through the help of family,
therapy, and medicine, she confronts deep-seated issues and curbs
the haunting cycle of suicide she once seemed destined to inherit.
