Product Information

At the age of twenty-seven, Mary Cregan gives birth to her first child, a daughter she names Anna. But it's apparent that something is terribly wrong, and two days later, Anna dies--plunging Cregan into suicidal despair. Decades later, sustained by her work, a second marriage, and a son, Cregan reflects on this pivotal experience and attempts to make sense of it. She weaves together literature and research with details from her own ordeal--and the still-visible scar of her suicide attempt--while also considering her life as part of the larger history of our understanding of depression.

Reviews
In The Scar, Mary Cregan has set herself the challenge of describing her personal anguish while educating the reader about the history of the treatment of depression. With a rare combination of clear-sightedness, a novelist's sense of narrative presence and cultural texture, and an ability to synthesize and explain an enormous quantity of scientific data, Mary Cregan makes an entirely original and invaluable contribution to the literature of this illness that has cast its mysterious shadow over so many lives., Cregan poignantly demonstrates the hard-won pragmatism of those who have battled mental illness.... In providing kinship to its fellow traveler, The Scar becomes the best sort of memoir--one that serves a higher purpose., Intimate and brave.... [The Scar] joins ranks with Kay Redfield Jamison's book, An Unquiet Mind, and William Styron's book Darkness Visible., [A] powerful debut.... [Mary] Cregan writes lucidly of her illness and offers hope as well as valuable insights for those living with depression., Courageous.... Cregan talks about mental health in a way that resonates with readers even as it informs. Those struggling with depression will find things to identify with here, and all readers will gain more insight into how depression affects its victims., A superbly intelligent and subtle interrogation of depression.... Gripping, elegant, constantly illuminating., A wrenching memoir of loss, sorrow, and recovery, as well as a layperson's informed and intelligent investigation of the illness that almost ended her life., ""Cregan's debut stands out for its personal and profound insights into a subject that can be difficult to grasp.", Powerful... Cregan writes lucidly of her illness and offers hope as well as valuable insights for those living with depression.--Publishers Weekly (starred review) An insightful account of the significant physical and emotional scars caused by depression... Inspiring and illuminating testimony.--Kirkus Compulsively readable... Written matter-of-factly, without recourse to melodrama or a facile assigning of blame, Mary Cregan explores the roots of her own depression and hospitalization with a candor that is all the more effective because it is set against an informed historical overview of the treatment of mental illness... The Scar will make you think differently about this condition and its debilitating effects, bringing out into the light a disease that has all too often been shrouded in stigma and shame.--Daphne Merkin, author of This Close to Happy What makes this immensely helpful and beautifully written book so moving is the way the author keeps unpeeling one layer after another of her experience, with such exquisite patience and intelligence that it is impossible not to care or identify with her.--Phillip Lopate, author of A Mother's Tale In The Scar , Mary Cregan has set herself the challenge of describing her personal anguish while educating the reader about the history of the treatment of depression. With a rare combination of clearsightedness, a novelist's sense of narrative presence and cultural texture, and an ability to synthesize and explain an enormous quantity of scientific data, Cregan makes an entirely original and invaluable contribution to the literature of this illness that has cast its mysterious shadow over so many lives.--Mary Gordon, author of There Your Heart Lies A searingly honest and riveting book. In prose that is vivid and exact, Mary Cregan describes her experience of deep depression. With skill and serious research, she also charts changes in the way this illness has been treated by doctors. This is a book that will really matter to anyone who has been through the experiences of depression or who has witnessed the suffering. What makes the book stand out is the sheer clarity of the writing, the personal fragility and the wrestling with demons emerging here with a kind of grace, a hard-won heroism.--Colm Tóibín, author of House of Names The Scar is a memoir unique in my experience: intensely personal, warmly and unflinchingly intimate, yet wide-ranging, informative, even scholarly--beautifully and persuasively written. Unlike any other memoir I have read touching on psychological vulnerability and the risk of suicide, The Scar reaches beyond its immediate subject to provide a cultural and historical context for that most mysterious of afflictions, 'depression'--or, in more Romantic terms, 'melancholia'--making it particularly valuable at the present time.--Joyce Carol Oates A truly exceptional book. All those who know depression first-hand will surely recognize themselves in Mary Cregan's account. This beautifully written and informative work will no doubt be critically important for those who read it.--David Karp, author of Speaking of Sadness: Depression, Disconnection, and the Meanings of Illness
