What Members Thought

Rosemary
Roseanne McNulty, around 100 years old, has been in a mental hospital for most of her adult life. She is now writing a secret account of that life, while her psychiatrist, Dr Grene, writes his own account of his attempts to find out the facts about her committal, with most of the relevant documents lost or half eaten by mice. What he finds does not always match with what Roseanne tells him, but Dr Grene is reluctant to believe his patient is lying.

A great book in many ways, and I did enjoy it,

This beautiful but tragic story was very touching. It was an interesting and thought-provoking read.
