Qui a dit que retrouver l'amour serait mission impossible ? Nicolas Depuis qu'Emilie m'a planté au pied de l'autel, je ne me reconnais plus. Je passe d'une aventure sans lendemain à une autre et me défonce dans le travail sans y trouver de sens. Quand mes meilleurs amis m'appellent à l'aide pour gérer leur mariage, j'accours. C'est sans compter cette furie d'Emma qui me pourrit la vie.>Emma Je ne peux plus voir Nicolas en peinture, surtout depuis qu'il m'a jetée comme une vieille chaussette. Il ne m'a rien promis, c'est vrai, mais qu'il ne me prenne pas pour une conne non plus ! Et cette histoire de mariage, on en parle ? Comment réussir à collaborer avec un homme aussi psychorigide ?>--------------------------------------------- Extrait: Je pousse un soupir de soulagement quand ma meilleure amie m'ouvre. Je ne me suis jamais sentie aussi peu à ma place qu'aujourd'hui. Je ne pensais pas que revoir Nicolas me ferait un tel effet. Nous nous sommes quittés il y a six mois en mauvais terme... non, plutôt en TRÈS mauvais terme. Je me rappelle lui avoir balancé une chaussure à la figure. Il n'a pas apprécié. En même temps, quand on est un goujat comme lui, que peut-on demander de plus ? Je pense que la pire chose que l'on ait pu faire, c'est de coucher ensemble. Seulement... personne n'est au courant: ni Thomas ni Vanessa. Aucun de nos amis ne sait que nous avons échangé plus qu'une bise. Enfin... si, j'ai raconté ce qui s'est passé à Annabelle, mais elle est la seule. Depuis cette histoire, je m'en veux... Car ce mec, il n'est pas pour moi. Il ne veut pas d'engagement, il est même devenu l'inverse de ce qu'on peut appeler un homme bien . Depuis sa rupture, ce n'est qu'un fauve qui ne respecte pas les femmes. Et comme une idiote, j'ai cru qu'une histoire entre nous était possible...
AN APPLE BOOKS PICK OF THE MONTH?Masterfully written, distinctively researched, deeply humane . . . Genius.??ANTHONY SWOFFORD, author of Jarhead?A major contribution . . . A necessary book.??JOHANN HARI, author of Lost Connections?This book is a triumph of the spirit and the flesh.??ELIZA GRISWOLD, Pulitzer Prize?winning author of Amity and ProsperityIn this stunning debut?both a memoir and a work of investigative journalism?writer Sarah Fay explores the ways we pathologize human experiences.Over thirty years, doctors diagnosed Sarah Fay with six different mental illnesses?anorexia, major depressive disorder (MDD), anxiety disorder, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and bipolar disorder.Pathological is the gripping story of what it was like to live with those diagnoses, and the crippling impact each had on her life. It is also a rigorous investigation into the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM)?psychiatry's ?bible,? the manual from which all mental illness diagnoses come. Yet as Fay found out, some of our most prominent psychiatrists have been trying to warn us that the DSM is fiction sold to the public as fact. In Pathological, former advisory editor at The Paris Review and award-winning writer Fay calls for a new conversation about mental health diagnosis, one based on rigorous transparency. With exquisite detail and a precise presentation of fact, she digs up her own life at the root to finally ask, Is a diagnosis a lifeline or a self-fulfilling prophecy?Powerful, mesmerizing, and unputdownable, Pathological sits alongside the other brave and inspiring classics of our time that explore a more intelligent, forgiving, and nuanced approach to human suffering.
