Very interesting book. It was very cool in many ways, and very annoying and unsatisfying in other way. I enjoyed that the audiobook employed two different readers for the patient and the doctor. Their sessions felt very real! I enjoyed her mathematical rants because I learned something! I believe the thesis of the book was the idea of what’s “real” is different in each of our minds, from the mind of a theoretical mathematician and a schizophrenic patient. That being said no questions were ever answered and it felt like a slog to get through!
