First Horizon Award Winner | The da Vinci Eye Award Finalist | Eric Hoffer Micro Press Award Winner | Southwest Book Design & Production Presidents Choice Award "Visually stunning, psychologically hard-hitting, and emotionally mesmerizing."—US Review of Books (Recommended) David Sandum appeared to have it all: a beautiful young family and a promising career ahead as a business consultant. But his life started veering off course, and upon returning to his native Scandinavia, he fell into an inexplicable, deep depression. Ill Run Till the Sun Goes Down is a searingly honest account of Davids struggle to overcome his crippling mental illness. After years of hopeless despair, bleak hospitalizations, and shattered dreams, he is finally saved by his art. The paintbrush becomes his lifeline. Richly illustrated with the work of the artists who have inspired him as well as samples of his own drawings and paintings, this memoir offers both a compelling read and a visual story of Davids courageous battle with depression.
