Description
In the summer of **1985**, severe depression left **William Styron** hopeless and suicidal. His memoir centers on his hospitalization and subsequent road to recovery. **Styron**’s message reminds us that ***as bleak as it may seem, there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel.*** Regardless of your experience, **Styron** will stir up strong emotions. Darkness Visible provides deep insight into what it’s like to live with depression—insight that will resonate with survivors and help those who aren’t afflicted develop a greater understanding of the pain that depression sufferers are going through. **Styron**’s utter candor makes this book truly impactful.
