But as the twins approached adolescence, Pamela began to succumb to schizophrenia, hearing disembodied voices and eventually suffering many breakdowns and hospitalizations. Divided Minds is a dual memoir of identical twins, now in their fifties, one of whom faces a life sentence of schizophrenia, and the other who becomes a psychiatrist, after entering the spotlight that had for so long been focused on her sister. Told in the alternating voices of Carolyn and Pamela, Divided Minds is a heartbreaking account of the far reaches of madness, as well as the depths of ambivalence and love between twins. It is a true and unusually frank story of identical twins with very different identities and wildly different experiences of the world around them. 2308781 2005 Divided Minds: Twin Sisters and Their Journey Through Schizophrenia total:183|5:49|4:80|3:40|2:12|1:2| 183 711 355 43 130609 0312320655 9780312320652 180 42 3.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171994402m/130609.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/130609.Divided_Minds_Twin_Sisters_and_Their_Journey_Through_Schizophrenia 4 7 false Sun Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 13 11:26:38 -0700 2008 Fri Jun 20 06:13:36 -0700 2008 more...]]> 130609 0312320655 9780312320652 180 42 3.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171994402m/130609.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/130609.Divided_Minds_Twin_Sisters_and_Their_Journey_Through_Schizophrenia 3 0 false Mon Dec 07 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Dec 07 10:58:41 -0800 2009 Mon Dec 07 11:20:24 -0800 2009 more...]]> 130609 0312320655 9780312320652 180 42 3.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171994402m/130609.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/130609.Divided_Minds_Twin_Sisters_and_Their_Journey_Through_Schizophrenia 4 0 false Wed Sep 09 11:57:34 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 09 11:59:11 -0700 2009 more...]]> 130609 0312320655 9780312320652 180 42 3.89 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171994402m/130609.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/130609.Divided_Minds_Twin_Sisters_and_Their_Journey_Through_Schizophrenia 5 0 false Sun Jun 21 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Mar 01 12:23:42 -0800 2009 Sun Jun 21 09:54:36 -0700 2009
What can I say about this book. First it reads like a well written novel, but it is a true story about twin sisters, one of whom has schizophrenia.
