— Trauma, of any kind, can create bizarre worlds. Worlds that become even stranger when the mind that creates them is ill. It can be hard to find a way through, back to a place where people can reach in and find you. Kathryn’s book , The Things We Left Sleeping, is her attempt to explain that journey.
