Memories recalled Madness: a personal account of living with manic-depressive illness. It is a memoir, the details and facts are true to the Author's recollections. Yet, a person struggling with a mental illness she realizes her point of view, may differ greatly from those around her. This is why she chooses to only use her own name and to fictionalize the names of all other persons in the book, to maintain privacy. Also she omitted names of cities, states or towns, because she feels strongly that stories such as hers occur in anytown or anycity, in the United States. The paperback is $15.99, 88 pages on white paper with color images. There is also a version on kindle for just $9.99.
