Book Description
Are you stuck in a rut? Is anxiety or depression sucking the joy out of your days? Fed up with feeling crappy? In Caging the Anxiety Monster, writer, mother, and happiness enthusiast Cathy Donaldson describes how anxiety and depression upended her world, led her to the psych ward, and ultimately forced her to discover ways-and create some of her own-to confine her "anxiety monster" and keep the fiend under lock and key. "Donaldson's memoir will resonate with many readers, whether they're dealing with anxiety or know someone who is. The story is at times heartbreaking but brimming with encouragement to get up and try again. Those of us with warm and tender hearts have a much harder time in this wacky world, particularly when life's blows seem to hit one after the other. Readers will undoubtedly find strength in this deeply personal tale. It is a gift of hope."-USA Today bestselling author Julianne MacLean CATHY DONALDSON is a former newspaper reporter who now wears many hats, from communications consultant and media strategist to travel writer, editor, researcher, and photographer.

ISBN: 1683356926
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
The internationally bestselling novel, inspiring the major film Jojo Rabbit now nominated for 6 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay An extraordinary, strikingly original novel that reveals a world of truth and lies both personal and political, Caging Skies is told through the eyes of Johannes Betzler, avid member of the Hitler Youth during World War II. Filled with admiration for the Fu ̈hrer and Nazi ideals, he is shocked to discover his parents are hiding a Jewish girl named Elsa behind a false wall in their home in Vienna. After he’s disfigured in a raid, Johannes focuses more and more on his connection with the girl behind the wall. His initial horror and revulsion turn to interest—and then obsession. After his parents disappear, Johannes is the only one aware of Elsa’s existence in the house, and he alone is responsible for her fate. Drawing strength from his daydreams about Hitler, Johannes plans for the end of the war and what it might mean for him and Elsa. The inspiration for the major film Jojo Rabbit, directed by Taika Waititi, Caging Skies, sold in twenty-two countries, is a work of rare power; a stylistic and storytelling triumph. Startling, blackly comic, and written in Christine Leunens’s gorgeous, muscular prose, this novel, her US debut, is singular and unforgettable.
