I’M CRAZY by Adam Bourret

I'M CRAZY by Adam BourretI had the opportunity to meet Adam Bourret and trade books with him a couple weeks ago at the Queen West Art Crawl. A 2009 Xeric Grant winner, I’M CRAZY is a fantastic, raw look at Adam’s journey through mental illness. Moving, emotional and often humorous – it is a fabulous story.

My two favourite lines:

-”We’re a pair. ‘Brother’ is to ’sister’ as ‘crazy’ is to ‘retarded’.”

- from Adam’s mom: “You’d rather be a racist than a pedophile. Wouldn’t you?”

Thank you Adam, your courage inspires me.

Poll Wrap Up

The polls are now closed and the results aren’t that surprising. Most of us feel that people can change (I’m still surprised that even 10% of pollsters don’t think people can change. That’s just sad to me…), and no one (except Cliff himself) thought that Cliff would remain faithful to me.

A big thanks to everyone that participated in the polls and through comments.
