À propos de cet audio
An “evocative and devastating” (The New York Times Book Review) memoir that reckons with mental health as well as the insidious ways men impact the lives of women.
In early 2021, popular artist Anna Marie Tendler checked herself into a psychiatric hospital following a year of crippling anxiety, depression, and self-harm. Over two weeks, she underwent a myriad of psychological tests, participated in numerous therapy sessions, connected with fellow patients, and experienced profound breakthroughs, such as when a doctor noted, “There is a you inside that feels invisible to those looking at you from the outside.”
In Men Have Called Her Crazy, Tendler recounts her hospital experience as well as pivotal moments in her life that preceded and followed. As the title suggests, many of these moments are impacted by men: unrequited love in high school; the twenty-eight-year-old she lost her virginity to when she was sixteen; the frustrations and absurdities of dating in her mid-thirties; and her decision to freeze her eggs as all her friends were starting families.
A “stunning self portrait of a woman trying to make sense of the misogyny and sexism she has faced throughout her life” (Time), Men Have Called Her Crazy examines the unreasonable expectations and pressures women face in the 21st century. It is an “original portrait of a woman who’s reached the apex of her rage against the patriarchy, a field guide to contemporary mental health practices, and a moving testament to the possibility of growth and healing” (W Magazine). Early in her stay in the hospital, she says, “My wish for myself is that one day I’ll reach a place where I can face hardship without trying to destroy myself.” By the end of this book, she fulfills that wish.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Anna Marie Tendler narrates her memoir of a short stay at a psychiatric hospital at the beginning of COVID as she attempts to deal with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, and an eating disorder. Along with a brutally realistic take on her stay, she includes scenes of her relationship with her mother, as well as older men with whom she was sexually involved as a minor. There’s also a brief glimpse of her life after the hospital. A theme throughout is how men can subtly keep women from becoming self-actualized. Although this story is Tendler’s, it’s universal. Listeners will feel her angst and, by the end, uplifting triumph. This audiobook is a deep look into the soul of a person who is willing to undertake hard work on herself to find satisfaction in life."
Editorial Review
This is not a celebrity divorce exposé. It’s better.
Anna Marie Tendler’s memoir has been getting buzz since last spring, on account of her public split with a very famous ex as well as her own artistic renown. But guess what? The vibes have shifted, because early reviews confirm that a) the famous ex is but an unnamed blip in Tendler’s story, and b) the memoir is FANTASTIC.
Men Have Called Her Crazy details the author’s stay at an inpatient psychiatric facility after her struggles with anxiety, depression and self-harm became impossible to manage. Her eye-opening honesty, humour and intelligent nuance in recounting both her experiences in recovery and the background that led her there – particularly her complicated history with men, which I suspect most women will find as powerfully relatable as I did – make for a captivating listen in Tendler’s own voice. Far more than tabloid fodder, it’s a deeply moving mental health memoir with staying power.— Kat J., Audible Editor

Nothing really happens…. Pretty boring listen.

I didn’t know she was the ex-wife of somebody famous. I was just reading it as a standalone book of her own story. She lacks self-awareness and makes up for it with privilege.
I hope one day someone does this title in this topic justice. Don’t waste your time here.
Her voice gets gravity when it gets too low, which is extremely annoying as well
Excellent Title
