My Name Was Susan O’Malley

Description

In 1977, Susan O’Malley suffers from “disease of the mind.” Like many who grappled with mental illness in the 20th century, her voice is largely silent, yet even after her death, remains a lingering, often combative, presence in the lives of her closest friends. My Name Was Susan O’Malley is a story of love, loss, and finding the strength to forgive yourself.
