MEDIA REVIEWS
The mortifying ordeal of being known,minus the ordeal and sans mortification. I felt recognised on every page,learned so many new things,and laughed so hard I choked on my water. Read this!!!In her candid,witty memoir,Marianne Eloise offers a powerful account of what it is like to feel trapped by mental health problems and obsessions...A brave book that puts vulnerability fully on show.Incandescent (...) Eloise's wit and grace cast her differences in a dazzling light (...) the result is a rewarding navigation through the corridors of a relentlessly curious mind.There are several shrewd observations made within this lucid and level-headed memoir. Amongst them is the way the matrix of obsession,compulsion and intrusion represents an exaggeration of conventional anxieties.Did not disappoint (...) a really good portrayal of neurodiversity in an entertaining and enjoyable way'Lyrical,often funny,...the essays will leave readers feeling secondhand joy and maybe even encouragement to own their love for their own less-than-cool favorite things.
