 Growing Up Crazy 		 

Browsing Options:

Growing Up Crazy is a real life drama that reads like a novel. Laura’s journey of self-discovery is seen throughout the story. The question of “who am I” repeatedly challenges her when situations highlighting her nationality, her intelligence, her family relationships, and her mother’s insanity assault her. Though she shrinks from things that make her stand out, she eventually finds that those are the very things that define her and give her the strength to be who she is.

The intensely personal look into the life of Mommy hints at the the growing stresses and ignored cries for attention that more famous and successful child killers like Andrea Yates may have felt. Mommy’s cultural isolation, her sense of being overwhelmed with so many children so early in life, the loneliness, the depression, the misdiagnoses and overmedications, and suicide attempts make her seem less like the monster killer portrayed in the news, and more like a human being in need of help.

There are many beautifully told memoirs, such as Angela’s Ashes and This Boys Life, that show triumph over adversity. Noteworthy stories such as these are successful because they touch the commonality of human experience. Growing Up Crazy brings the issue of mental illness home. With approximately 15 million Americans aged 18 or older estimated to have a serious mental illness, and less than half receiving treatment, this is a standard part of many people’s lives that still isn’t talked about. Growing Up Crazy is sure to touch the hearts of those readers and provide them with a level of comfort unknown before reading it.
