Here comes the shimmer...\"\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom irreverent NYC blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones comes an account of her \"misadventures in motherhood, love, and epilepsy\" that James Patterson calls \"smart, harrowing, heart-warming, and very funny.\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat do Da Vinci, Agatha Christie, and blogger Alisa Kennedy Jones have in common? If you said \"timeless artistic genius\", stop sucking up--the answer is ecstatic epilepsy. In this hilarious and moving dispatch from the frontlines of neurodiversity, Jones chronicles life with these terrifying-yet-beautiful grand mal seizures. Characteristic of Jones's condition are attacks which leave her with what Zen Buddhists sometimes refer to as a \"beginner's mind\": a vast, open expanse of headspace, coupled with a creative euphoria.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith bracing candor and humility, Jones describes living with chronic illness, single motherhood, and her day-to-day life as a hapless writer in NYC. Above all, Jones reminds us to fight the battle for becoming who we are supposed to be--no matter how much flopping around on the ground and wetting ourselves we have to do to get there.","brand":"Charlesbridge","offers":[{"title":"STANDARD","offer_id":62271081021827,"sku":"9781623545284","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/8456\/3587\/files\/9781623545284.jpg?v=1785518250","url":"https:\/\/shopcomics.eu\/products\/gotham-girl-interrupted-9781623545284","provider":"Shop Comics EU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
