It was the end of life as she knew it. In the months that followed, she went from being a shiny, funny, popular leader to a divorced wreck on antidepressants and antianxiety meds, parenting five kids alone with no clue about the functioning of her own bank accounts. Having led millions of women for over a decade—urging them to embrace authenticity, find radical agency, and create healthy relationship—she felt like a catastrophic failure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpanning five decades—from girlhood through marriage and parenting—in brutally honest, surprisingly funny vignettes, Jen lays bare the disorienting upheaval of midlife and dares to question the systems beneath the whole house of cards. More than one woman’s story, \u003ci\u003eAwake\u003c\/i\u003e is a critical analysis of the story given to all of us: the story of gender limitations, religious subservience, body shame, self-erasure.

He’d traveled all over the world advocating for mental health awareness, standing before crowds as a success story. But secretly, he was depressed and some days, he didn’t want to live.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYears earlier, when he first told his father he wanted to be a novelist, the response was immediate and brutal: “Idiot!” That voice—angry and belittling—would echo through Quick’s mind for years. He channeled his pain into his debut novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Silver Linings Playbook\u003c\/i\u003e, crafting a complex father-son dynamic drawn straight from his own life. The book became a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestseller and was adapted into an Academy Award–winning film starring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence. Still, the approval Quick longed for never came. His father remained cold and withholding. The deeper the rift between them grew, the deeper Quick sank into anxiety and addiction.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, Quick takes readers deep into his psyche, as he wrestles with both his own mental health and his father’s cognitive decline. A health scare finally forces Quick to get sober, but then, overcome by creative paralysis, writer’s block threatens to end his career. The blank page is unbearable. As his desperation for healing peaks, Quick turns to a Jungian analyst he nicknames “Zeus.” In the safety of analysis, as Quick’s repressed pain and shame surface, he finally cracks. Just as he is putting himself back together, his father is diagnosed with dementia.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSuddenly, the clock is ticking. If there is ever going to be reconciliation, it has to happen now. Quick and his wife pack up their lives in coastal North Carolina, drive eight hours, and move into a house just around the corner from Quick’s parents, on an island right outside of Beaufort, South Carolina. There, as his father slips further and further away, Quick races to make a healing connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eDad, Love, Me\u003c\/i\u003e is Quick’s raw, vulnerable, and deeply moving account of what it means to forgive a parent who never really knew how to love you.
