Langbeschreibung
A darkly humorous, insightful and searingly honest first-hand account of a journey through schizophrenia from a prodigiously talented writer. In 2006 Will Elliott had his first novel the Pilo Family Circus published. It won five literary awards and great acclaim, nationally and internationally. What nobody knew was that the young author of that work of terrifying fantasy had recently recovered from a psychotic episode and been diagnosed as schizophrenic.Strange Places takes us on a journey through psychosis and out the other side, documenting the delusions, the drugs and the insights that recovery brings. A beautifully written memoir of a harrowing - and enlightening - time, from one of Australia's best young writers.
Will Elliott won the ABC manuscript award with The Pilo Family Circus; in 2006 it won the Golden Aurealis Award and was published in the UK, US, Italy and Germany to great acclaim. He also won The Sydney Morning Herald Best Young Novelist Award, a Spanish Nocte award for Best Foreign Novel, a Ditmar award for Best Novel and was shortlisted for the International Horror Guild Award. He published a memoir, Strange Places, with ABC books in 2009 and the Pendulum fantasy trilogy with Voyager in 2010 and 2011. His standalone novel Nightfall was published in 2012. He lives in Brisbane.
