Summary
Wurtzel claims to speak for herself and for a young generation facing major societal problems. A former popular-music critic for the New Yorker, she details her life with depression, from a despairing pre-adolescence through suicide attempts after college. Prozac has… helped her, but she worries that its trendy reputation may minimize the seriousness of depression.
