L'altra verità

This book is a raw and powerful account of a poet's decade-long stay in a psychiatric hospital. The author chronicles her experiences with horror, loneliness, and torture, but ultimately delivers a poignant reflection on the beauty of life and emotions. The book is a diary that doesn't shy away from the realities of mental illness, yet manages to find hope and innocence in the midst of despair. This is a moving and reflective work of poetry that cuts through numbness and fear.
