Girl, Interrupted

"Girl, Interrupted" by Susanna Kaysen became a cult book of its time, but it gained real popularity years later when James Mangold made a film of the same name starring Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie.

Even before the world was engulfed... in interest in works about people stuck in borderline states, the writer decided to share her personal drama. The book has no lies or pretense, which makes it easy for us, the readers, to immerse ourselves in such an unusual story.

"Girl, Interrupted" is an autobiographical novel that narrates a difficult period in the life of an ordinary girl. After a failed suicide attempt, the young heroine finds herself in a "parallel universe" – a psychiatric hospital. And from that moment on, everything she knew about the surrounding world, people, and even herself comes into question.
