- Information
Description
At the age of twenty-seven, Mary Cregan gives birth to her first child, a daughter she names Anna.
But it's apparent that something is terribly wrong, and two days later, Anna dies-plunging Cregan into suicidal despair.
Decades later, sustained by her work, a second marriage, and a son, Cregan reflects on this pivotal experience and attempts to make sense of it.
She weaves together literature and research with details from her own ordeal-and the still-visible scar of her suicide attempt-while also considering her life as part of the larger history of our understanding of depression.
