Summary

A deeply human novel about burnout, identity, and learning how to stay when surviving isn’t enough.

**He didn’t want to die. He just couldn’t keep living like this.**

Rusty has spent his life being “okay.” Okay at work. Okay with family. Okay with being the man the world expects. When everything finally collapses, he’s forced to stop running—from his past, his identity, and the version of himself he learned to hide in order to survive.

Told through intimate therapy sessions and memories, The Man in Me is a powerful novel about burnout, masculinity, queerness, and the quiet courage it takes to come back to yourself after a lifetime of pretending. This is not a story about fixing what’s broken. It’s a story about recognizing what was never wrong.
