mchl_btt's review against another edition
5.0
La storia di una famiglia e la storia del progresso nelle cure psichiatriche. Non c’è sensazionalismo, ricerca spasmodica dello shock, la storia è narrata in modo chiaro e diretto, gli eventi inquietano solo per la loro bruttura intrinseca, intervallati dagli studi scientifici e di ricerca sulle malattie mentali.

Fascinating and compelling topic. Obviously. But the format (some family member names were bold at the start of chapters to indicate the chapter was about them but the bold wasn’t very obvious on my Kindle. Also, jumping from familial narrative to highly biological language was odd, even if perhaps necessary to carry the story forward.) There were also sections early in the book where a thread was just dropped off with ellipses without enough content to provide the reader with direction. How odd!
