Surviving for the Hell of It
Kate Bornstein Has 101 Alternatives to Suicide and Zero Apologies
My friend Kate Bornstein has written several famous titles, but my favorite is a book called Hello Cruel World: 101 Alternatives to Suicide for Teens, Freaks and Other Outlaws.
Catchy title, eh? I couldn’t wait to interview her.
Kate says in her intro:
"I’ve had a lot of reasons to kill myself, and a lot of time to do it in, and I stayed alive by doing things that many consider to be immoral or illegal.
I’m glad I did it, because I’ve really enjoyed writing this book."
