        			Publisher's description. A stark and lyrical memoir of the steep descent into madness and the slow, agonizing recovery that follows. In 2013, Jay Griffiths suffered a devastating year-long episode of hypomania and extreme depression. Tristimania is the extraordinary, brave and painfully honest account of that year. (Penguin)

        			'There are galaxies within the human mind, and madness wants to risk everything for the daring flight, reckless and beautiful and crazed . . .'Tristimania is Jay Griffiths' story of a devastating year-long episode of manic depression. A profound exploration of a condition that is at once terrifying and also deeply creative, both tricking and treating the psyche, hers is a journey headlong into the heart of art and madness.'Ferocious, delicate, iridescent... Rare lucidity and honesty make Tristimania a gripping book and an important one' Telegraph 'Griffiths always writes so vividly... [Tristimania] strike[s] the reader like a punch to the throat; here is all the rawness of psychic pain, torn out and laid bare... both the terror and the seductive glitter of a manic episode. ' Observer 'One of the bravest books I've read' Paul Kingsnorth, author of The Wake'Griffiths is a high-wire writer . . . An exciting and original thinker, her writing shimmers' New Statesman'If bravery itself could write, it would write like she does' John Berger'Beautiful, brave and moving... A triumph in every sense' John Burnside, New Statesman Books of the Year'A fearless explorer. Griffiths takes us into another world, one with even greater perils and mysteries to be plumbed, and brings back even stranger truths' Philip Pullman
