Goodreads Summary: Classic first-person account of a woman’s descent into madness.
My views: A sort of creepy story in which the protagonist creeps all over. Ha ha! You have to read the story to understand what I mean. The story is told from the depths of mental illness- clear, vivid, amusing, disheartening and striking! I loved the conceptualization and description of the story. A little read but it makes you think for hours after. The language is beautiful and there is so much show rather than tell in the writing that I could see clear visuals of the happenings. You must read this one for the sake of having a glimpse into madness (and I don’t say that in any bad way. Equivalent to mental illness, a crude term)
A must read for mental health professionals and students.
