My Name Was Susan O'Malley - Paperback

by Michael J. Nercessian (Author)

"Unique and beautifully done...an enriching experience from beginning to end - deep, emotional, and moving." -Sacha T. Y. Fortuné, Discovery Book Review

"[Nercessian] is so skilled at creating characters vulnerable and real that we can feel their pain and deeply-set regret...a truly satisfying journey" - Madeline Barbush, Independent Book Review

In 1977, Susan O'Malley suffers from "disease of the mind." Like many who grappled with mental illness in the 20th century, her voice is largely silent, yet even after her death, remains a lingering, often combative, presence in the lives of her closest friends. My Name Was Susan O'Malley is a story of love, loss and finding the strength to forgive yourself.
