Reviews

"An illustrated meditation on what it's like to live enslaved by one's own worries and what one can do to break free." --Brain Pickings
"The power of LePage's book lies not just in capturing the psychological condition, but the emotional experience that goes with it.... A book that not only helped me understand myself, but helped others understand me--and that, even for a moment, made me feel a little less alone." --The Guardian
