Acclaimed Canadian author and playwright Ann-Marie MacDonald’s most recent novel closely resembles her own life, as it follows Mary-Rose MacKinnon through a couple of days in her life. An unrelenting look into the day-to-day - and moment-to-moment - struggles of living with depression and anxiety: Mary-Rose’s seemingly idyllic middle class urban existence, taking care of her two young children, along with her theatre director wife, is a regularly harrowing experience as she battles with her inner demons and does her best to remain afloat and on top of her family’s needs.
