I‘m in love with Tove Ditlevsens writing since reading “childhood”. In “The faces” Lise Mundus is going through a psychotic episode. She obsesses over the faces of the people around her and hears voices, who are threatening and pushing her to indifference. 
It was an amazing read, which I’ll certainly keep thinking about.
