INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! In I'm Telling the Truth, but I'm Lying Bassey Ikpi explores her life--as a Nigerian-American immigrant, a black woman, a slam poet, a mother, a daughter, an artist--through the lens of her mental health and diagnosis of bipolar II and anxiety. Her remarkable memoir in essays implodes our preconceptions of the mind and normalcy as Bassey bares her own truths and lies for us all to behold with radical honesty and brutal intimacy.

By the time she was in her early twenties, Bassey was a spoken word artist and traveling with HBO's Def Poetry Jam, channeling her life into art. But beneath the façade of the confident performer, Bassey's mental health was in a precipitous decline, culminating in a breakdown that resulted in hospitalization and a diagnosis of Bipolar II. In I'm Telling the Truth, But I'm Lying , Bassey Ikpi breaks open our understanding of mental health by giving us intimate access to her own. Exploring shame, confusion, medication, and family in the process, Bassey looks at how mental health impacts every aspect of our lives--how we appear to others, and more importantly to ourselves--and challenges our preconception about what it means to be "normal." Viscerally raw and honest, the result is an exploration of the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of who we are--and the ways, as honest as we try to be, each of these stories can also be a lie.

Reviews
Ikpi is not the first to write about mental illness, but I can't say I've ever read a narrative about it like this... her writing is yes, poetic and lyrical with tenderness and thoughtfulness but also funny. She's just so damn funny and her wit often makes her essays as humorous as they are heartbreaking.... You want to root for her well being. You want to be more understanding of others. And, for some of us, by the end of I'm Telling The Truth, but I'm Lying, you might find yourself realizing you are no less guilty of telling yourself certain stories in order to deal with trauma, secrets, and shame., The writing in I'm Telling the Truth, But I'm Lying is wholly sincere and consistently slanted. That's so hard to pull off. No writer in the country does as much with short soulful sentences as Bassey Ikpi. We will not think or talk about mental health or normalcy the same after reading this momentous art object moonlighting as a colossal collection of essays., I read the first half... in a day and sobbed with recognition.... There were nuanced descriptions about childhood and family dynamics that I didn't think anyone else had experienced. A wonderful exploration of the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of who we are., As phrases that can stop and startle you, here's just one. 'My mother loves and hates and heals and hurts with the same hands.' The noted spoken word artist has written a book of essays that perform a memoir.... Thanks for writing this.
