The Noonday Demon: An Atlas of Depression by Andrew Solomon
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I don’t know who recommended this book for me. Whoever, thank you! This was so interesting!
Having borrowed the Libby audio narrated by the author, I now hope to buy the book someday.
The thing is, this is more than a book about depression, or even one person’s account of his own journey. This book includes a bit of history of the diagnosis and treatment for centuries. It also includes how the disorder affects different socioeconomic sets of people.
I highly recommend this for anyone who has gone through depression or know of others who might be suffering. It leads to not only a deeper understanding, but medical issues and ways to find health.
You might have added it to your list based on my positive review. In any case, I’m glad it was right for you.
That may be true. Thanks for the suggestion. đ€
