Closer to the Truth: A memoir of Domestic Violence, Mental illness and other tragic stories. By: Karen Griego-Martinez Ever since she was a little girl, Karen Griego-Martinez knew she had to tell her mother's story. Turned out her mother's story was evolved from learning disability, mental illness, and domestic violence. Karen's story is incredibly interesting because her mother's story was unique in that she was given to her auntie to be raised, so her entire life she lived with severe abandonment and trust issues. No one knew her underlying mental illness issues or her learning disabilities, that if she was treated for and had proper counseling, she would have led a productive and solid life, that her children might not have suffered so severely. It is a fine example of untreated mental illness that does trickle down. On top of that, she somehow survived years of domestic violence by her husband, Karen's father. But her relationships with other lovers after that could never be healthy and the relationships between her and her children were always ripped apart, never healthy. Karen's mother could have conquered the world. She wasn't a dumb woman, she was a misunderstood soul. Her beauty was beyond most. She had class and style on the outside but on the inside of her mind was what was dark and she suffered. They all suffered. Read Closer to the Truth, a story about mental health and disabilities and the true nature that millions of Americans go untreated every year, every day. This is her memoir for all who know her, for all who knew her mother.

Although historians frequently use memoirs as source material, too often they confine such usage to the anecdotal, and there is little methodological literature regarding the genre’s possibilities and limitations. This study articulates an approach to using memoirs as instruments of historical understanding. Jennifer Jensen Wallach applies these principles to a body of memoirs about life in the American South during Jim Crow segregation, including works by Zora Neale Hurston, Willie Morris, Lillian Smith, Henry Louis Gates Jr., William Alexander Percy, and Richard Wright. Wallach argues that the field of autobiography studies, which is currently dominated by literary critics, needs a new theoretical framework that allows historians, too, to benefit from the interpretation of life writing. Her most provocative claim is that, due to the aesthetic power of literary language, skilled creative writers are uniquely positioned to capture the complexities of another time and another place. Through techniques such as metaphor and irony, memoirists collectively give their readers an empathetic understanding of life during the era of segregation. Although these reminiscences bear certain similarities, it becomes clear that the South as it was remembered by each is hardly the same place.

A BOOK OF THE YEAR GUARDIAN , THE ECONOMIST, NEW STATESMAN, FINANCIAL TIMES, BLOOMBERG Anil Seth's radical new theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology. 'A brilliant beast of a book.' DAVID BYRNE 'Hugely important.' JIM AL-KHALILI 'Masterly . . . An exhilarating book: a vast-ranging, phenomenal achievement that will undoubtedly become a seminal text.' GAIA VINCE, GUARDIAN Being You is not as simple as it sounds. Somehow, within each of our brains, billions of neurons work to create our conscious experience. How does this happen? Why do we experience life in the first person? After over twenty years researching the brain, world-renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth puts forward a radical new theory of consciousness and self. His unique theory of what it means to 'be you' challenges our understanding of perception and reality and it turns what you thought you knew about yourself on its head. 'Seth thinks clearly and sharply on one of the hardest problems of science and philosophy, cutting through weeds with a scientist's mind and a storyteller's skill.' ADAM RUTHERFORD 'A page-turner and a mind-blower . . . Beautifully written, crystal clear, deeply insightful.' DAVID EAGLEMAN 'If you read one book about conciousness, it must be Seth's. JULIAN BAGGINI, WALL STREET JOURNAL 'Gripping.' ALEX GARLAND 'I loved it.' MICHAEL POLLAN 'Fascinating.' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Awe-inspring.' NEW STATESMAN 'Brilliant.' CLAIRE TOMALIN, NEW YORK TIMES
