The woman in the checkered chair. Þórunn Stefánsdóttir tells the story.
The Woman in the Checkered Chair is a personal account of Þórunn Stefánsdóttir's struggle with depression. After ten years of struggling with an illness that brought her to the brink of despair and attempted suicide, an illness that has long been a source of shame, an illness that claims more lives than we suspect, she rediscovered joy and purpose in life. This is an unusually graphic and beautiful account of everyday life in the black hole of depression. A straightforward and rarely honest and courageous description of a journey from deep darkness to a bright vision of life. It has a message for everyone, whether they have experienced the illness firsthand or not. (Bókatíðindi 2001).
