SUMMARY:Author Talk: Tyler Kania, “The Maniac with No Knees”
DESCRIPTION:The Library is pleased to welcome rugby player, coach, independent journalist, civil rights activist and author Tyler Kania. Tyler will be presenting his book “The Maniac with No Knees,” a finalist for the 2025 Independent Author Network (IAN) Book of the Year Awards in the Grief/Hardship Category.\nDiagnosed with Bipolar I Disorder after years of undiagnosed highs and lows, Tyler shares his intense struggles with mental illness, compounded by rare knee injuries that could have derailed anyone’s spirit. This memoir goes beyond the typical sports or career narrative, delving deeply into the complexities of mental health, resilience, and finding meaning in a turbulent world. Through raw and heartfelt storytelling, he recounts a series of manic highs and debilitating lows—moments of triumph, loss, and the unwavering support of friends who helped him find his way back to himself.\n
