Blurb

Through sparse, elegant prose,Amy Koppelman'sbrutally honest portrayal of family and self shows the reader that real problems are indiscriminate of money or birthright.A Mouthful of Airbrings to light the complexity and fragility of the human psyche.A Mouthful of Airbegins a few weeks after Julie Davis's suicide attempt and on the eve of her son's first birthday. Desperate to lead a "normal" life, Julie tries to be thankful for the good things- her comfortable lifestyle, her doting husband and her healthy baby.But her emotional demons are unrelenting, and the battle is being quietly lost.
