Hillbilly Gothic: A Memoir of Madness and Motherhood"My family has a grand tradition. After a woman gives birth, she goes mad. I thought that I would be the one to escape."

"My family has a grand tradition. After a woman gives birth, she goes mad. I thought that I would be the one to escape." So begins Adrienne Martini's candid, compelling, and darkly humorous history of her family's and her own experiences with depression and postpartum syndrome. Illuminating depression from the inside, Martini delves unflinchingly into her own breakdown and institutionalization and traces the multigenerational course of this devastating problem. Moving back and forth between characters and situations, she vividly portrays the isolation -- geographical and metaphorical -- of the Appalachia of her forebears and the Western Pennsylvania region where she grew up. She also weaves in the stories of other women, both contemporary and historic, who have dealt with postpartum depression in all its guises, from fleeting "baby blues" to full-blown psychosis. Serious as her subject is, Martini's narrative is unfailingly engaging and filled with witty, wry observations on the complications of new motherhood: "It's like getting the best Christmas gift ever, but Santa decided to kick the crap out of you before you unwrapped it." New mothers and those who have struggled with parenthood -- whether or not they dealt with depression -- will find affirmation in this story of triumph, of escape from a difficult legacy, of hope for others, and of the courage to have another baby.Binding Type: Paperback

Large, easy to set up
Size: 10 Person
Better than anticipated! Loved the size, the ease with which it was put up, and the height! Not a fan of how the "room divider" divides, but it works. Despite the photos, for some reason I was expecting a little more separation, but you have to go through the first 'room' to access the second. Other tents that I looked at that had 2 rooms had 2 side-by-side entrances. Still, very pleased with the tent overall. Did not get to test the water resistance, luckily, but it does seem like a good, sturdy tent that is easy to put up, even with three 7 year old boys running around the camp site.

Easy set up
Size: 10 Person
The tent was easy to set up. The instructions were easy to understand. It was nice to lay out the tent and clip the poles into place. Easy to set up for one person. All the zippers work and looks to be well made. Hopimg it will.last quote a while. I'm 6'3" and had plenty of space to stand. Lots of room on the inside. Looking forward to using this tent a lot.

No Good
Size: 6 Person
Brand new screen netting on door and windows had small holes thus allowing mosquitoes in. Unfortunately the return window passed but due to weather we just got to try it out last week. Also floor had pin holes first use which I think after several uses will develope bigger holes. Very thin material. Also came with no setup instructions but that was easy to figure out. Like the fast setup that’s it. I may have gotten someone else’s return ???
