  How does a psychologist fail to recognize that her intelligent, sensitive, and book-loving mother has created "the worst hoarder house ever seen?" After making the horrifying discovery that her mother had no water in her house for at least two years, Deborah Derrickson Kossmann begins the otherworldly excavation of a childhood home she hasn't been inside for three decades. Moving back and forth in time, from this surreal nightmare of an archaeological dig to recollecting her past and long buried family secrets, Kossmann seeks to untangle a web of complicated familial relationships. In her lyrical and unflinching quest, she comes to understand what's been lost, what's been found, and what's been kept in both her own and her mother's life.

  Lady Lay begins Lessons From The Stressors by recounting her upbringing in Washington, DC in the early 90s. From an early age, she exhibited subtle signs of anxiety and depression that would follow her into adulthood. She concealed this inner turmoil under the guise of people pleasing, shrinking, and collecting accolades. However, when her anxious tendencies and depressive episodes were intensified through trauma, she struggled to keep her condition concealed behind the facade of kindness and academic success. As she matured, her conditions intensified. 
  Gradually, Lady learned coping strategies to better manage her physical, emotional, and mental states. Through perseverance and self-care, she learned tools to alleviate her suffering just enough to start building herself back up. Those tools would ultimately assist with anticipating triggers, redirecting obsessive thoughts, and nurturing her overall mental health. 
  In her memoir, Lessons from the Stressors, Lady traces her journey from childhood into adulthood as she learns to understand, accept, and overcome the challenges of anxious and depressive episodes. The lessons from those stressors are shared in hopes that readers find their own light when dealing with darkness.

  Between the Lines -...

  Eric Simonson

  In the spring of 2022, the renowned Steppenwolf Theatre Company boldly, and perhaps cavalierly, re-emerged from the Covid-19 pandemic with a brand new, 43 million dollar, state-of-the-art theatre. Director Yasen Peyankov insisted he cast the premiere production - a brand new, adaption of The Seagull - with as many Steppenwolf ensemble members as possible. This meant coaxing one non-actor, director and writer Eric Simonson, into coming back to the stage after a 33 year absence. Taking a leap in the dark, and battling the demons of stage-fright, confidence and homesickness, Simonson took up the challenge and started on a journey into the great theatrical unknown. Part diary, part history of the Chicago Theater Renaissance, this memoir takes the reader behind the scenes of a Steppenwolf classic, and inside the head of a man desperate to rediscover the joy and craft of acting.

  In The Torture of Love, the second volume of The Revisionist series, Michael A. Delitala guides readers through a deeply emotional journey of love, heartbreak, and self-discovery. Rather than focusing on the individuals from his past, the narrative explores the recurring patterns that define these relationships. Each person represents a different emotional cycle that keeps him tethered to familiar habits—until he learns to break free. This memoir isn't just about romance; it's about the growth that comes from recognizing and breaking emotional patterns to find one's authentic self. 
  Michael A. Delitala begins with reflections on a strict upbringing, which limited his ability to express individuality. This foundation sets the stage for the romantic struggles that follow—where passion, insecurity, and emotional distance become familiar themes. The women in his life are presented as symbols of repeated patterns, not named as individuals, emphasizing the idea that we often fall into familiar cycles in love until we learn to change. By reflecting on these relationships, The Revisionist discovers how breaking these patterns leads to personal growth and deeper self-understanding.
