from Book Me · host Book Me

Season 5, Episode 8 After 15 years in a psychiatric hospital, Elizabeth has been pronounced "well" and released to a group home. With no memory of what led to her institutionalisation, she sets out to find the significance of names and words in her notebook. Through first-person accounts by Elizabeth and her family, Laura Best has crafted a gripping novel describing the disintegration and eventual healing of a mind and relationships - before and after events in the early 1960s. Costas Halavrezos interviews Laura about the challenge of creating Elizabeth's changing mental landscapes.
