It’s a literary memoir combined with important insights for people who are depressed, as well as their friends and family.
*Why would I want to read so much about another person's life except that it's self-revealing, honest, illuminated with humor, and urgent. It has a reason for being; a perfect storm of a book.*
— Kabir Helminski, Shaikh of the Mevlevi Order of Sufism and Co-Director of the Threshold Society
*No hushed reverence, no self-aggrandizing, no simple tried and true cures... just a shared battle and a stunning honesty.*
— Will Ackerman, Grammy Award winner and Founder of Windham Hill Records
*Beyond the obvious—that it's a travelogue of an emotional journey, a "Fodor's Guide" to the troubled soul—the great insight of David's Inferno is that life and literature are interwoven, that we can look to even ancient books for wisdom, diagnoses, and hope. Blistein's frenetic, torturous—and surprise, funny!—tale offers all three in just the proper dosages.*
— J.C. Hallman, author of Wm & H'ry: Literature, Love, and the Letters Between William and Henry James.
*Warm and compassionate, often hilarious, and full of hope and encouragement…If you love someone who is depressed (or who you think might be), read this book.*
—Caroline Carr, author of Living with Depression: How to Cope When Your Partner is Depressed
