What if our notion of what makes us happy is the very thing that’s making us so sad? Ten years on from first writing about her own experiences of mental illness, Bryony Gordon still receives messages about the effect it has on people. Now perimenopausal and well into the next stage of her life, parenting an almost-adolescent, just what has that help – and that connection with other unwell people – taught Bryony about herself, and the society we live in?

In Catherine Gray’s hilarious, insightful, soulful (and very ordinary) book, you may learn to do just that. We’re told that happiness is in the extraordinary.
