Four Men.
Manic Highs.
Crushing Lows.
Fifteen years of loving through madness at the mercy of undiagnosed Bipolar I disorder.
In Tainted Love: A Bipolar Memoir, one impulsive decision sets in motion the compounding chaos and allure of four love stories—igniting in seduction and collapsing in disillusionment.
Enter Marco. Married. Tragically unattainable with dangerous ties to the Italian Mafia. She never once says no. Few things motivate a wedding like a cancer diagnosis, but, as it turns out, Jim loves beer, blow, and Mary Jane more than her. Drowning in his boyish baby blues, Luke promises her everything she's ever wanted, including baby Lily. And finally, she’s all too willing to hurl herself 1,400 miles for Patrick, the undeniable villain of her story.
In the end, the noise fades, the mask lifts, and something radical is discovered: untainted love.
Confronting the brutal complexities of the human mind, Tainted Love is a soul-stirring, emotionally arresting, coming-of-age memoir where mental illness, addiction, and identity collide with failed love and single motherhood. Tainted Love will resonate with book clubs and fans of Girl, Interrupted, Prozac Nation, We Are the Luckiest, and My Dark Vanessa.
