• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Can a life weave along through the same notes and yet come to play forth different sounds? The Sound of SCH (pronounced S-C-H) is the true story of a journey with mental illness. Growing up, Danielle Lim witnessed her uncle's silent struggle with a crippling mental and social disease, and her mother's difficult role as caregiver. Their beautifully told personal story takes place between 1961 and 1994, against the backdrop of a fast-globalising Singapore-where stigmatisation of persons afflicted with mental illness nevertheless remained deep-seated. Raw and honest in its portrayal of living with schizophrenia, The Sound of SCH is a moving account of human resiliency and sacrifice in the face of brokenness. A pioneer in mental health writing in Singapore, this new edition includes an updated Preface and Afterword. Winner of the Singapore Literature Prize for English non-fiction
