Girl, interrupted by Susanna Kaysen

Girl, Interrupted

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Girl, Interrupted is a best-selling[1] 1993 memoir by American author Susanna Kaysen. In the book, Kaysen relates her experiences as a patient in a psychiatric hospital in the 1960s after being diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. The memoir's title is a reference to the Vermeer painting Girl Interrupted at her Music[2].

While writing the novel Far Afield Kaysen began to recall her almost two years at McLean Hospital[3]. Once done with the book she obtained her file from the hospital with the help of a lawyer and began to write Girl, Interrupted.[4]

In 1999, the memoir was adapted into a film of the same name starring Winona Ryder and Angelina Jolie. It was directed by James Mangold.

Lemony Snicket - The Hostile Hospital

Lemony Snicket - The Hostile HospitalAs you might expect, nothing but woe befalls the unlucky Baudelaire orphans in the eighth grim tale in Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events that began with The Bad Beginning. Ever since the orphans' photographs were plastered across the front page of The Daily Punctilio in an article falsely accusing them of murder, they have been on the run. Only when they disguise themselves as cheerful hospital volunteers (Volunteers Fighting Disease, to be exact), do they see a possible refuge. Of course, this backfires hideously. Where is their ineffectual guardian, Mr. Poe, when they need him most?  (Ages 9 and older) --Karin Snelson
