“I finally understand what a person with a mental illness feels like, lives like, and how he fights for his sanity and his life every single day . . .This book has compassion, passion, understanding, and a force of will that will allow any person to become better and make peace with themselves. Great job.”

“[Clyde's] story is fascinating because he is able to intellectualize what he was thinking and feeling at the time, even if he is discussing his paranoid delusional thoughts . . . As someone with a Master's of Science degree in a counseling field, I have found my greatest lessons have been from real people and not material in textbooks. As I read Clyde's story, I felt like I learned many lessons through what he has to share. My work will definitely be more beneficial by what I learned from him.”

“This is the tale of what happens when a compassionate, honest, humble man is confronted by corruption, cruelty and malice. Readers get to share this metaphoric journey through the intricacies of the human mind. When Clyde is subjected to a harsh world he begins to make tenuous connections steeped in reality and becomes prone to the whisperings of his own secret understandings.”
