Unredeemed: Hateful and Others

Unredeemed: Hateful and Others explores the taboo topic of mental illness from various points of view in a variety of ways. From Tracy, the self-destructive twentysomething with bipolar disorder to Suzanne, the prejudiced pharmacist bent on doling out her own kind of justice on psychiatric patients, the characters in this collection come alive and express new ways of viewing what it means to be "healthy."
