This week Sovereign Syre and Ela Darling profile writer and icon, Elizabeth Wurtzel. A beautiful, young, Harvard graduate whose memoir Prozac Nation got her on the New York Times Bestseller List and made her an overnight celebrity. She also suffered from major depression and was one of the first people to be prescribed the drug Prozac.  She was both a media darling, and roundly mocked by others, for what was precieved as a kind of narcissism endemic of a news generation, a cohort labeled Gen X.
