About this product

Product Information

Hurry Down Sunshinetells the story of the extraordinary summer when, at the age of fifteen, Michael Greenberg's daughter was struck mad. It begins with Sally's sudden visionary crack-up on the streets of Greenwich Village, and continues, among other places, in the out-of-time world of a Manhattan psychiatric ward during the city's most sweltering months. "I feel like I'm traveling and traveling with nowhere to go back to," Sally says in a burst of lucidity while hurtling away toward some place her father could not dream of or imagine.Hurry Down Sunshineis the chronicle of that journey, and its effect on Sally and those closest to herher mother and stepmother, her brother and grandmother, and, not least of all, the author himself. Among Greenberg's unforgettable gallery of characters are an unconventional psychiatrist, an Orthodox Jewish patient, a manic Classics professor, a movie producer, and a landlord with literary aspirations. Unsentimental, nuanced, and deeply humane,Hurry Down Sunshineholds the listener in a mesmerizing state of suspension between the mundane and the transcendent.

"Lucid, realistic, compassionate, and illuminating.... In its detail, depth, richness and sheer intelligence, Hurry Down Sunshine will be recognized as a classic of its kind." -Oliver Sacks, The New York Review of Books "[ Hurry Down Sunshine ] is about tenacity and tenderness, feeling helpless but being present, about cracking up, then finding the wherewithal to glue the jagged pieces of your mind back together again. But mostly it''s about love."  -Oprah Winfrey, in her letter to readers in O, The Oprah Magazine "Triumphant. . . . Greenberg renders the details of his daughter''s breakdown with lyrical precision." - The Washington Post "There is a dancing, dazzling siren seductress at the heart of this book and . . . [it is] madness itself. . . . The startling associative imagery that gives Greenberg''s writing its power is like a domesticated version of the madness that nearly carried away his daughter''s life." - Time "This memoir of a family crisis captures the grief that transformed their lives . . . readers come away with a sense of the intractable nature of psychosis and the courage it requires for patients like Sally, whose struggles continue, merely to live." - People "[ Hurry Down Sunshine 's] fundamental strength arises from Greenberg' s insistence on facing the demons that held his girl in their dark thrall. Sally' s descent and tentative return form the map for this story; Greenberg's courage lies in his willingness to follow her down that terrible path, no matter where it leads." - Bookforum "[A] remarkable account." - The New York Times Book Review "[A] finely observed memoir . . . written in delicately episodic style. Vivid." - The Wall Street Journal "Touching, warmly intimate, and unsparing. . . . Like the best fiction, this memoir has transcended the merely particular and eccentric to constitute a kind of hard-won art." -Joyce Carol Oates, Times Literary Supplement (London) "Beautifully written. . . . The literary precedents Greenberg turns to are Joyce and Robert Lowell. . . . There are echoes of Virginia Woolf, too. . . . Sally's psychiatrist calls . . . the mind falling in love with its delusions . . . 'the evil seduction'. But Greenberg can understand the impulse, and it's this that gives Hurry Down Sunshine such power." - The Guardian (London) "A story of almost mythic power. . . . A compelling narrative about how one family coped with madness. . . . Tough and lyrical. . . . Greenberg brings a true writer's sensibility to every line." - The Times (London) "[A] moving, brutally self-examining and unsettling memoir." - The Daily Mail (London) "[Greenberg] writes beautifully. . . . [He is] gratefully and minutely observant. . . . His cast captivates." - The Observer (London) "The psychotic break of his fifteen-year-old daughter is the grit around which Michael Greenberg forms the pearl that is Hurry Down Sunshine . It is a brilliant, taut, entirely original study of a suffering child and a family and marriage under siege." Janet Malcolm, author of The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath & Ted Hughes and The Journalist and the Murderer "One of the most gripping and disturbingly honest books I have ever read. The courage Michael Greenberg shows in narrating the story of his adolescent daughter's descent into psychosis is matched by his acute understanding of how alone each of us is, sane or manic, in our processing of reality and our attempts to get others to appreciate what seems important to us. This is a remarkable memoir." -Phillip Lopate, author of Two Marriages and Waterfront: A Journey Around Manhattan, "Lucid, realistic, compassionate, and illuminating.... In its detail, depth, richness and sheer intelligence,Hurry Down Sunshinewill be recognized as a classic of its kind." -Oliver Sacks,The New York Review of Books "Hurry Down Sunshineis about tenacity and tenderness, feeling helpless but being present, about cracking up, then finding the wherewithal to glue the jagged pieces of your mind back together again.

What setsHurry Down Sunshineapart...is Greenberg's frank pessimism, dark humor and fundamental incapacity to make sense of his daughter's ordeal." -The New York Times Book Review "Triumphant....

His cast captivates." - The Observer (London) "The psychotic break of his fifteen-year-old daughter is the grit around which Michael Greenberg forms the pearl that is Hurry Down Sunshine . It is a brilliant, taut, entirely original study of a suffering child and a family and marriage under siege." Janet Malcolm, author of The Silent Woman: Sylvia Plath & Ted Hughes and The Journalist and the Murderer "One of the most gripping and disturbingly honest books I have ever read. The courage Michael Greenberg shows in narrating the story of his adolescent daughter's descent into psychosis is matched by his acute understanding of how alone each of us is, sane or manic, in our processing of reality and our attempts to get others to appreciate what seems important to us. This is a remarkable memoir." -Phillip Lopate, author of Two Marriages and Waterfront: A Journey Around Manhattan From the Trade Paperback edition.
