Having survived a profoundly dysfunctional upbringing only to find herself hospitalized and facing a dual diagnosis of post traumatic stress disorder and bipolar II disorder; Terese Marie Mailhot is given a notebook and begins to write her way out of trauma. The triumphant result is Heart Berries, a memorial for Mailhot's mother, a social worker and activist who had a thing for prisoners; a story of reconciliation with her father-an abusive drunk and a brilliant artist-who was murdered under mysterious circumstances; and an elegy on how difficult it is to love someone while dragging the long shadows of shame. Mailhot trusts the reader to understand that memory isn't exact, but melded to imagination, pain, and what we can bring ourselves to accept. Her unique and at times unsettling voice graphically illustrates her mental state. As she writes, she discovers her own true voice, seizes control of her story, and, in so doing, reestablishes her connection to her family, to her people, and to her place in the world."--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 362.19685 Mailhot Ma   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19685 Mailhot Ma   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19685 Mailhot Ma Donation Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19685 Mailhot Ma   Lost 09/12/2023 Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Biography B Mailhot Ma   item being mended   Add Copy to MyList McCully-Moiliili Public Library Adult Biography B Mailhot Ma   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Mililani Public Library Adult Biography B Mailhot Ma   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Wailuku Public Library Adult Nonfiction 362.19685 Ma   Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Waimea Public Library (Kauai) Adult Nonfiction 362.19685 Mailhot Ma Memoir Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
