Haldol and Hyacinths +The Answer to the Riddle Is Me


Haldol and Hyacinths by Melody Moezzi
The Answer to the Riddle Is Me: A Memoir of Amnesia
by David Stuart MacLean

"MacLean has written a memoir that combines the evocative power of William Styron's "Darkness Visible," the lyric subtlety of Michael Ondaatje's "Running in the Family," and the narrative immediacy of a Hollywood action film. He reminds us how we are all always trying to find a version of ourselves that we can live with." - The Los Angeles Times

"(MacLean) is an exceedingly entertaining psychotic." "Thanks to his raw, honest and beautiful memoir, readers will . . . have a clear idea what his experience was like. We can be grateful Mr. MacLean has remembered so much, and so well." - The New York Times
