"Reviewed By Carol Thompson for Readers' Favorite
Josh Bottomly's Eucatastrophe is an engaging exploration of personal crisis and triumph over life’s profound challenges. With an introspective tone, Bottomly delves into his experiences of grappling with mental health, particularly depression, and the indelible impact it has had on his personal and professional life. His narrative is raw, evocative, and honest, providing a lens into the complexities of living with and overcoming a mental health crisis. The book is structured around a “eucatastrophe,” borrowed from J.R.R. Tolkien, describing a sudden turn of events that ensures the protagonist does not meet some looming disaster. This metaphor is skillfully woven throughout his recounting, from the darkness of his struggles to the light of recovery, creating a powerful narrative arc.
Josh Bottomly is an educator who illustrates his points to students with doodles, and he does so for readers throughout this book. He is an excellent storyteller, and his stick figure and simplistic art is powerful. Bottomly's candid and heartfelt writing style is moving as he shares his deepest lows and personal victories without reserve, making the book a source of inspiration for those facing similar battles. His discussions on the impact of mental health on his career as an educator and administrator are relatable to anyone in high-stress environments, highlighting the often-overlooked mental health needs of education professionals. As a teacher myself, I can relate to Bottomly’s struggles and appreciate how he breaks down the complexities of mental health issues in a way that can be understood. The memoir includes facts about suicide and antidepressants that I found quite alarming. Bottomly’s incorporation of elements of pop culture helps to connect with readers. Eucatastrophe is an inspiring book that is a must-read for anyone interested in mental health, personal development, or personal resilience and recovery stories. I highly recommend it and applaud the author for sharing such a personal journey to help others."
