When the young Ali Douglas decided she wanted a career on television, she found a way to make it happen. She pushed and pushed until she landed her first TV job. But as her public profile grew, Ali's life got harder, stranger, and more chaotic. Beautiful Chaos takes us to the heart of the tsunami that was Ali's life. From the exhilarating highs to the debilitating lows, Ali lived life beset by the effects of an illness that she didn't even know she had. From the outside, Ali appeared glamorous and successful. But really, she was frequently lonely and depressed. Ali had achieved what she'd always wanted, but she wasn't happy.   Ali was 35 years old when she was finally diagnosed with bipolar II - and everything changed. That's when Ali embarked on a whole new adventure - a new relationship, a son, and a new way of looking at life. Ali doesn't hold anything back. She lays her life bare, and takes us on a journey from her darkest days to her brighter future, showing us how she learned to find beauty in chaos.… (mais)

While this is a good scholarly review of Chaos Theory as it applies to contemporary American Fiction, it leans very heavily on Postmodern Fiction and ignores the more recent "Hysterical Reality" movement. If you know nothing about Chaos Theory, be sure to read [b:Chaos: The Making of a New Science|64582|Chaos The Making of a New Science|James Gleick|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327941595s/64582.jpg|62690] by [a:James Gleick|10401|James Gleick|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1304671926p2/10401.jpg] first to get a proper introduction to the basics. It also helps if you've read books by Don Delillo, Barth and Cormac McCarthy ( )
