Waiting for the sun

Michael Greenberg tells the true story of Sally, his 15-year-old daughter, who suffered a psychotic episode in July 1996 on the streets of Greenwich Village, New York. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder, she was admitted to a psychiatric clinic and began taking medication that left her completely apathetic. In a poignant account, the author questions the possibility of Sally ever returning to a normal life and what could have caused her illness.
