She also wrote a non-fiction book about the suicide of Virginia Woolf and tried to commit suicide while writing it and after it was written. In her own words, she was writing it as a suicide note. https://lithub.com/author/norah-vincent/ According to a past friend, she was suffering with depression and was on meds prior to her research for self-made man. https://spectator.org/losing-norah-vincent/ To point to something that she did 16 years prior to her assisted suicide and saying that it's THE cause of her death is disingenuous to down right disinformation. On the assisted suicide and mental health, I'm on the fence with it. The examples that you give in Canada, where someone that's down on their luck is given the OK, no, I think that's horrific. It's the sign of a society that is sick. I've even seen reports of veterans being almost urged to go through assisted by the Canadian VA... We don't live in a healthy society in the least and I don't expect we will for awhile or ever again.
