Mercy gene : the man-made making of a mad woman

Derbyshire, J. D. (author.).

Summary: Told in kaleidoscopic bursts of erratic recollections, daydreams, poetry, and lists, JD Derbyshire illustrates the intense and invisible "side effects" of psychiatric treatment and the unreliability of memory. Between devastating bouts of depression, hilarious side-quests into the author's dryly sardonic inner monologue, helpless moments at the mercy of their own psyche, and tour-de-force appearances by fictional versions of Miriam Toews and the late, great Margot Kidder, Derbyshire leads readers through a non-linear narrative to treatment, forgiveness, and acceptance.
