Zig-Zag Boy: A Memoir of Madness and Motherhood
by Tanya Frank
Zig-Zag Boy a Worthwhile Read (1/31/2023)
Zig-Zag Boy is a beautifully written memoir. Within the first few pages, I was drawn into the story and it was hard to put down. Tonya Frank successfully shares a glimpse of what it was like for her as a mother to deal with an adult son with Psychosis. She bravely shares her struggles as she navigates health care systems in both California and the UK as she endlessly advocates for him. It was at times heartbreaking but a very worthwhile read. Frank demonstrates her fierce love for her son and the importance of being present with him through his struggles. Impressive writing.
