RX: A Graphic Memoir

“With gallows humor and graphic energy that vibrates off the page, Rachel Lindsay shares the powerful story of her unraveling and, in the process, manages to knit herself back together again.” -Alison Bechdel, Fun Home

“Rachel Lindsay’s graphic memoir is a powerful example of how writing and drawing about something painful and unimaginably difficult —in this case, bipolar illness— can be healing, both for oneself and for those who read it.” -Roz Chast, New York Times Bestselling author of Can We Talk About Something More Pleasant?

“The making of this remarkable and darkly funny book— told with an enviable clarity-of-thought— is, in the end, Rachel’s launch on her journey of self-help…with the making of this book, she demonstrates that art can surely set us on the path to discovering, understanding, and, therefore, forgiving ourselves.” -David Small, National Book Award finalist and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Stitches

“Lindsay’s debut…captures the frenzy of her bipolar disorder and puts readers within the eye of the hurricane, identifying with her so completely that it becomes impossible to accept easy, black-and-white answers about the nature of her illness and the effectiveness of her treatment…disturbing, yet important, for readers.” -Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review

“Lindsay drew her experiences—driven and determined even in the swirling cloud of her illness to create, resulting in this illuminated account of self-discovery.” -Publisher’s Weekly
