“It is 1903, Daniel Paul Schreber is sent to an asylum when he claims God is sending him messages. He believes that God wants him to become a woman to save the world and that he should be set free as a matter of religious freedom. A wholly engrossing discourse on mental illness through a single well-known case of schizophrenia that will be of interest to anyone who has ever tangled with mental illness.” (Keith Griffiths)
