Am personally interested because I had a grand mother who was in a psychiatric institution when I was born, 1960s. The case is very different but I find the questions raised in this essay very pertinent. Sometimes the chronology is confusing and the family ties are not always very clear but it’s illuminating and am grateful for this book

Currently reading the chapters on the lobotomy and the paternalising approach both by the men in the family and the doctors. To be expected, but so sad and deeply touching.
