Lithium for Medea: A Novel

Lithium for Medea: A Novel

Lithium for Medea is as much a tale of addictionâ€”to sex, drugs, and dysfunctional family chainsâ€”as it is one of mothers and daughters, their mutual rebellion and unconscious mimicry. Here is the story according to Roseâ€”the daughter of a narcissistic, emotionally crippled mother and a father who shadowboxes with death in hospital corridorsâ€”as she slips deeply and dangerously into the lair of a cocaine-fed artist in the bohemian squalor of Venice. Lithium for Medea sears us with Roseâ€™s breathless, fierce, visceral flightâ€”like a drug that leaves oneâ€™s perceptions forever altered.
