A retired boxer sets out in search of her daughter, Shyloh, an addict living with mental illness on the streets of San Diego. In Fort Unicorn and the Duchess of Knothing, Nelson tries desperately to find—and save—her first-born, delving into the roots of mental illness, addiction, and the meaning of unconditional love. This memoir is an unflinching witness of what it means to be homeless, mentally ill, and addicted in America.

A Beautiful Tragedy
Revisado: 05-23-23
Andrea tells an amazing story of the unconditional love of a mother and daughter relationship. She depicts the beauty and tragedy throughout her story by describing Shyloh’s mental illness, substance use, and homelessness. As someone who works in the field of mental health, I encourage this read to not only professionals but anyone. Fort Unicorn and the Duchess of Knothing gives a face and story to those who are so often judged in a negative light by our society. It also explains the challenges of our systems in providing support. Thank you Andrea for sharing your journey.
