  1. 1. So Sad Today

    Personal Essays
    Cover of 'So Sad Today' by Melissa Broder

    An unflinchingly candid collection of personal essays that confront anxiety, depression, addiction, disordered eating, and fraught relationships with dark humor and stark self-awareness. Navigating lust, love, internet persona, and the search for meaning, the narrator exposes contradictions between public bravado and private fragility. The result is a raw, intimate portrait of modern despair and the messy, sometimes comic attempts to survive it.
