Bipolar Blonde by Morgan Hutchison
In Bipolar Blonde, Morgan Hutchinson—founder of the fashion brand Buru—pulls back the curtain on the polished life she's built to share the unfiltered truth beneath it: a raw, redemptive memoir of living with bipolar disorder, surviving the dizzying heights of mania, and crawling back from rock bottom.
At its heart is a love story that unfolds across a glittering window of timeout and about in New York—where romance and mania blur into something intoxicating before the lights go dark. With the same candor and warmth that turned Buru into a community, Morgan traces her descent into suicidal darkness and the hard-won work of rescuing herself, offering readers not a tidy recovery arc but an honest companion for the parts of mental illness we're still afraid to say out loud.
Bipolar Blonde is for anyone who's ever smiled through the storm—and a clarion call to finally talk about mental health with openness, honesty and humor.
