Publisher's Synopsis
In Lost My Mind Here Someplace, join a fiercely resilient woman as she navigates the tumultuous waters of immigration from South Africa to the United States, armed with nothing but an oversized suitcase and delusional ideas about the American dream. With razor-sharp storytelling and tragic humour, this memoir reveals the messy transformation from a naive girl to a woman who embraces her defects amidst the chaos of what she once thought was the 'Land of Plenty'. This is a tale of survival through a fruitless search for one's sanity and the unexpected laughter that stitches together the fabric of our deepest struggles, proving that even in the darkest moments, there's a punchline waiting to be found.
