Judy Bolton-Fasman, ASYLUM: A Memoir of Family Secrets

Zibby is joined by Judy Bolton-Fasman to talk about her debut memoir, Asylum, and the different threads throughout her life that led to that title. The two discuss the unique dynamic that existed between Judy's parents and how it fostered a number of secrets she sought to uncover throughout her childhood, as well as the different iterations this project has taken over the sixteen years it took her to write. Judy also openly shares her experience living with panic attacks in the book and in conversation with Zibby because she wants to destigmatize mental illnesses and the different ways we can manage them.Purchase on Amazon or Bookshop.Amazon: https://amzn.to/340bH4SBookshop: https://bit.ly/3u7lYXzSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.** If you enjoy recommending things you love and even earning from it, you have to become a creator on ShopMy!
