The product of a stoic, working-class British family, graphic novel author and artist Sacha Mardou had a deeply seeded distrust of mental health treatment, but at forty, she found herself in a therapist’s office for the first time. There she begins the real work of growing up: learning to understand childhood trauma she thought she’d left hidden in the past. "Past Tense" takes us inside Sacha’s life-changing therapy sessions. Bravely told, visceral, and profoundly moving, "Past Tense" is a story about our power to break free of the past--once and for all--and find hope.
