This book changed my life
The story of Lynne Folkard's life as she suffered from schizophrenia is engrossing and disturbing. She spent years just wandering around Australia, hitching lifts from trucks and being homeless and hearing the scary voice in her head -- and she was totally delusional. I think she's a fascinating person -- I've been writing fiction where the main characters are based on her.
