| Publisher Description: The setting for Seeing Red: A Memoir, is the growing Central Oregon community in the mid-1970s. A young mental health professional is drafted and easily seduced into a position of leadership for which he is woefully ill-prepared and decidedly un-suited. Seeing Red: A Memoir, is a love story embedded in a struggle to grow local mental health services in a time of fiscal austerity and a battle to provide actual services to clients in a public sector bureaucracy that demands organizational meetings and paperwork. As in Jim's previous writings, clients provide the story with courage and wisdom and employees demonstrate weaknesses, wonders and humor. Finding one's place in a complex and demanding world is a theme which runs through the entire narrative. |
