One Flight Short of a Cuckoo's Nest

In this memoir, James L. Cartee III challenges our institutions, inlcuding the Church, to face common failings toward those who suffer mental illness, citing that ignorance and a lack of caring often instigate further hardships. Cartee chronicles his journey with mental illness. Time after time, he falls only to rise again and achieve many of his goals, including attaining a graduate degree and traveling around the world. Cartee shares the message of hope that if he, a man from a simple background, can rise above his mental illness, then anyone can––through the strength and grace of God.
