A Fable for Grownups

Average rating3
The book is a good illustration (haha pun) of bipolar disorder, health insurance is still seemingly needlessly complicated, and at a certain point I felt that the story turned into a cathartic story of good triumphing over a clear evil.
The afterword is fantastic. Founds talks about calling ahead to insure (haha another pun) that her insurance covers a psychiatrist at a Stanford clinic is told ‘yes' and then has to pay $650. I am livid on her behalf and she's absolutely right that in addition to having the stress of experiencing bipolar disorder she also has to cope with the added stress of dealing with health insurance.
