Synopsis
Andy Gage is 29 years old, but he is inhabited by multiple personalities that range from a 5-year-old boy to a middle-aged woman. Presently, Andrew is in charge, and his aim is to return Andy to normalcy. His plan goes seriously awry, however, when he meets a woman named Penny who has her own stable of personality types--most of them furiously destructive. The ensuing chaos is treated with both seriousness and humor. Winner of the 2003 James Tiptree, Jr. Award and a New York Times Notable Book for 2003.

Reviews
This book was so good. I learned so much about MPD and how a person realizes they have more than one personality. A little confusing at times with all the names and personalities within the main character, but as you keep reading it gets easier to keep track of who's who.
