Description
This is a powerful and deeply personal account of a young woman's struggle with schizophrenia. Deborah's world is shattered as she retreats into her own inner kingdom, a fantastical refuge both beautiful and terrifying.
With the help of a gifted psychiatrist, Deborah must find a way back to the world outside. This is a wrenching and thought-provoking exploration of mental illness, one that offers a rare and valuable insight into the darkest corners of the human mind.
First published in 1964, this book remains a deeply moving and thought-provoking work, one that continues to resonate with readers today.
