Rabbits for Food

 Fiction by Binnie Kirschenbaum


At the beginning of this book, a woman (possibly named Bunny) is institutionalized after a long slide of depression followed by a violent breakdown. She is refusing treatment.

A few chapters in, I realized that reading the chronicle of her spiraling decline might devastate me beyond repair, and I had to stop reading. Maybe the author should take it as a compliment that her prose affected me so...

I'm logging the book here as a Did Not Finish so I don't accidentally try to read it again.
