A heartbreaking book, this True Story tells of a very bad in start fraught with desperation and doing everything to get out of one's condition. The author claims writing the book was difficult but she felt compelled to do so. Since then, while the book sold in the hundreds of thousands of copies, Adeline Yen Mah only appeared a very few times in public and rarely signed her work. This is a beautiful signed copy of her most important book, 1st edition.
