BUT INSIDE I'M SCREAMING |
| by Elizabeth Flock
(Mira Books, forthcoming, September 2003). |
BUT INSIDE I'M SCREAMING is about as funny as a novel can get that's
set inside a psychiatric hospital. While breaking the hottest news
story of the year, broadcast journalist Isabel Murphy unravels on
live television in front of an audience of millions. She lands at
Three Breezes, nicknamed the "nut hut," where she begins
the painful process of recovering the life everyone thought she had.
But accepting her place among her fellow patients proves more difficult
as Isabel struggles to reconcile the fact that she is, indeed, one
of them, and faces the reality that in order to mend her painfully
fractured life she must rely solely on herself. An intense and absorbing
novel, it is the unforgettable story of one woman's trying to figure
out what went so very wrong, and to accept an imperfect life in
a world that demands perfection.
