Description

ONE OF CBC BOOKS CANADIAN NONFICTION TO READ IN THE FALL

A poet recounts his experience with madness and explores the relationship between apprehension and imagination.

In the summer of 1977, standing on a roadside somewhere between Dachau and Munich, twenty-two-year-old Mike Barnes experienced the dawning of the psychic break hed been anticipating almost all his life. Times over the years when I have tried to describe what followed, he writes of that moment, it has always come out wrong. In this finely wrought, deeply intelligent memoir of madness, its antecedents and its aftermath, Barnes reconstructs instead what led him to that moment and offers with his characteristic generosity and candor the captivating account of a mind restlessly aware of itself.
