Description

Have a look into the writing of Jeffers’ self-published memoir, Can You Hear the Music?, which documents her diagnosis with and recovery from bipolar disorder as well as PTSD from the Virginia Tech shooting while she was on the tenure track at the University of Michigan. 

Jeffers’ work of creative nonfiction gives a unique firsthand account of vicarious trauma and serious mental illness, and her book touches on related topics that do not receive nearly enough attention. Chosen as a 2023 must-read book on bipolar disorder by bphope.com

This event includes a signing with books for sale.
