Heavy Light: A Journey Through Madness, Mania and Healing

Image result for Heavy Light: A Journey Through Madness, Mania and Healing
An extraordinary book: deeply moving, darkly funny and hugely powerful. It travels hard country: mania, paranoia, the huge collateral damage of madness. It shows its readers, unforgettably, what it is like to see the world on a “skewed plane”. But the star by which it steers is, in the end and above all, love. This book confirms that Horatio Clare is among the most brilliant and compassionate writers of non-fiction I know — Robert Macfarlane
