aishie's review against another edition
5.0
This book. What to say. I've read a lot of books recently that deal with psychosis-be it in children or adults (thank you thesis!), obviously these are medical/academic books, but this fiction work dips it's toe majestically into these waters. I have to say, this deals with a very sensitive subject (multiple sensitive subjects, actually) in such a thoughtful, considered manner, it was beautiful to read. Too often some subjects can be dramatised or exaggerated for effect, and a lot fall into these pitfalls along the way, but this author stayed true to the story, and to the voices in the story (read his dedications at the end!). I read the last few pages of this with tears in my eyes, and I haven't said that about any book in a while!
