Publisher's summary

LISTEN NOW as acclaimed narrator Michael Berger transports you into THE DRAMATIC STORY OF A PIONEERING MAN, HIS MERCURIAL MIND AND A SOCIETY IN LIMBO.

“If you found An Unquiet Mind or Darkness Visible transformative, Words With My Father will further enrich your perspective and resilience.”

Mission: A deceased father and alive son discuss the development of the father's bipolar condition during the turmoil of the 1960s and explore the insights into better mental health that listeners (like you) can absorb from his intense odyssey.

Synopsis: Words With My Father offers a gripping audio portrait of the evolution of a young man's mental illness and how it manifested into a dramatic and often dangerous existence through the turbulence of the Civil Rights, Peace and Conservation movements.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying Original Photographs PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Indulgent personal family experience

Better enjoyed as a Christmas family newsletter. Writings juvenile and accounts of a man’s life supposedly framed within bipolar. Neither enlightening nor useful. Sigh.
