  If you think you know what mental health during and after pregnancy looks like, Persevered: A Maternal Mental Health Memoir will make you reconsider. This book is a raw personal account of surviving the darkest moments of new motherhood while juggling high expectations at home and at work. 
  Zivin takes the listener on an intimate and eye-opening journey that weaves together her perinatal medical records, journal entries, research, and imperfect memories. The story unfolds across hospital rooms, the author's home, and the university where she works, highlighting the complexity of holding on to one's identity when everything feels uncertain. Zivin writes with striking honesty about the confusion, guilt, and isolation that so many mothers experience alone but rarely admit to others. 
  Persevered moves beyond one woman's survival, breaking the silence that still surrounds maternal mental health. Zivin’s story reminds us that reaching out, sharing our experiences, and demanding better support can make a difference, not just for mothers but for families and communities. This memoir is for anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed, anyone who has supported a loved one through challenging times, or anyone who believes that honest storytelling can spark real change.

  ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
  "Drive Your Plow Over The Bones of the Dead" by Olga Tokarczuk is a philosophical thriller set in a remote Polish village. The story revolves around Janina Duszejko, an eccentric, aging woman who lives a solitary life deeply connected to nature and astrology. When a series of mysterious deaths strike the community, all involving local hunters, Janina becomes convinced that the animals are responsible, enacting revenge for the cruelty inflicted upon them. Her unconventional theories, based on astrological interpretations and observations of animal behavior, are met with skepticism and ridicule by the villagers and the police. However, as the deaths continue, and the evidence points to animal involvement, Janina takes matters into her own hands, becoming both detective and vigilante in a quest for what she believes is a higher form of justice. The novel explores themes of animal rights, human-animal relationships, and the limits of human understanding, weaving a compelling narrative that blurs the lines between reason and intuition, crime and compassion.
