Summary

Bassey Ikpi was born in Nigeria in 1976. Four years later, she and her mother joined her father in Stillwater, Oklahoma--a move that would be anxiety ridden for any child, but especially for Bassey. Her early years in America would come to be defined by tension: an assimilation further complicated by Bipolar II and anxiety that would go undiagnosed for decades. Viscerally raw and honest, this deeply personal collection of essays is an exploration of the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of who we are, and the ways, as honest as we try to be, each of these stories can also be a lie
