Kaysen's memoir encompasses horror and razor-edged perception while providing vivid portraits of her fellow patients and their keepers. It is a brilliant evocation of a \"parallel universe\" set within the kaleidoscopically shifting landscape of the late sixties. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eGirl, Interrupted\u003c\/i\u003e is a clear-sighted, unflinching document that gives lasting and specific dimension to our definitions of sane and insane, mental illness and recovery.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-16144102\"\u003eSusanna Kaysen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/19\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.00h x 5.10w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780679746041\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0679746048\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO022000\"\u003eWomen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO026000\"\u003eMemoirs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSUSANNA KAYSEN has written the novels \u003ci\u003eAsa, As I Knew Him\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eFar Afield\u003c\/i\u003e and the memoirs \u003ci\u003eGirl, Interrupted\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Camera My Mother Gave Me.\u003c\/i\u003e She lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45796354457775,"sku":"9780679746041","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/9255\/8767\/files\/img_3e97c98a-3fbf-4574-b065-2f66e63bf575.jpg?v=1755625250","url":"https:\/\/www.correctionsbookstore.com\/es\/products\/girl-interrupted-9780679746041","provider":"Corrections Bookstore ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
