A brilliant young author takes us on a journey through the agonizing psychological landscape of mental illness as populated by God, girls, and apocalyptic nightmares. Even more than this, the author emerges as a preternatural talent and voice of the millennial age. In this acid bath of a memoir, Wortmann peppers his gripping story with a kaleidoscope of culture high and low ranging from his obsessions with David Bowie, X-Men and Pokemon, to an eclectic education shaped by Shakespeare, Kierkegaard, Catholic mysticism and Christian comic books, the social scene at the "People's Republic of Swarthmore," and his stay at the OCD Institute in Massachusetts. The perfectread for fans of Wes Anderson movies, Patton Oswalt's humor, or simply pitch-perfect memoirs, Triggered is a touching, triumphantly funny, compulsively readable, and ultimately uplifting coming-of-age tale for Generation Anxiety.
