Sorrow and Bliss
by Meg Mason
Martha knows there's something wrong with her even though her husband repeatedly tells her she's okay. When Martha finally figures out, it doesn't matter anymore since she's lost everyone she loves. Is it too late to get the only thing she wants in life?
SORROW AND BLISS is a poignant exploration of Martha's journey through life, tackling the raw reality of mental health struggles. Martha's critical nature initially makes her a challenging protagonist to connect with. However, as the story unfolds, we witness her growth and understand the profound impact of depression on her lifeāfrom her education to her relationships.
The novel delves into the nitty-gritty details of depression, shedding light on how it affects not only the individual but also the people around them, reminiscent of SOMEDAY MAYBE (Onyi Nwabineli).
As Martha's story nears its conclusion, the transformation she undergoes compels the readers to root for her. And when her revelation strikes, I find myself sobbing alongside Martha, empathizing with how her assumptions about her defined identity due to her diagnosis caused her to miss countless opportunities.
SORROW AND BLISS is a beautifully crafted tale that navigates the complexities of mental health and its impact on one's life. It's a poignant reminder of understanding & supporting those facing similar challenges, and it left me with a deep appreciation of the resilience of the human spirit.
