"My family has a grand tradition. After a woman gives birth, she goes mad. I thought that I would be the one to escape." So begins Adrienne Martini's candid, compelling, and darkly humorous history of her family's and her own experiences with depression and postpartum syndrome. Illuminating depression from the inside, Martini delves unflinchingly into her own breakdown and institutionalization and traces the multigenerational course of this devastating problem. Moving back and forth between characters and situations, she vividly portrays the isolation -- geographical and metaphorical -- of the Appalachia of her forebears and the Western Pennsylvania region where she grew up. She also weaves in the stories of other women, both contemporary and historic, who have dealt with postpartum depression in all its guises, from fleeting "baby blues" to full-blown psychosis. Serious as her subject is, Martini's narrative is unfailingly engaging and filled with witty, wry observations on the complications of new motherhood: "It's like getting the best Christmas gift ever, but Santa decided to kick the crap out of you before you unwrapped it." New mothers and those who have struggled with parenthood -- whether or not they dealt with depression -- will find affirmation in this story of triumph, of escape from a difficult legacy, of hope for others, and of the courage to have another baby.Binding Type: Paperback

Need scan button to work!
Pattern Name: Printer, Style: ET-15000
Love (almost) everything about this except the scan button. The scan button on the Epson screen does not work. I called Microsoft who tried to fix it through the connection but still didn't work. Sent an e-mail to Epson and no response. Really need this scan button to work so that I can scan to desktop.

Pleased
My iPad needed an upgrade and I’m pleased with this one. The battery holds 100% charge and the condition is excellent except for some hairline scratches on the back. Overall I’m happy with it and the price was good. I’d recommend this seller any day.

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE — THE iPAD DOESN’T TURN ON AT ALL
I received an iPad that is completely dead. It doesn’t turn on at all, no matter what I try.
I tested it with different chargers and adapters — nothing works. There’s no charging sign, no Apple logo, no reaction whatsoever. It’s just a dead device, clearly defective.
On top of that, the color is wrong. I ordered silver, but they sent me blue, which looks totally different from the pictures — it’s more like a dull gray tone.
I live in Armenia, and returning the product from here is extremely difficult and expensive, so I’m basically stuck with a non-working iPad that I can’t even use.
The whole situation is very disappointing — the product is not as described, it’s faulty, and the seller provides no proper help or responsibility.
Do not buy from this seller. The item was dead on arrival, the color was wrong, and the support was useless.
If you value your money and peace of mind, avoid this seller completely.
