AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Lisa is defined by a truly human experience of the world: her bipolar-ness is merely a part of her personality. Lisa invites the reader to share the unique experiences that have formed her into a complete human being: a chilhood in New Zealand, Australia, Holland and the US; a broken marriage; motherhood; drugs and sex.
