From her reflections on the ruts of a miserable family, a future full of hope and promise, the arguments inside her head, and the one eternal love that guided the way from near and far, Natalia offers a fascinating lyrical tour of the bipolar mind. As I Remember in Poetry and Prose profiles one womans reality as she journeys from darkness to the light and, at last, finds peace within her tormented soul.
