James Tait Black Memorial Prizes
Ha Ha (Virago Modern Classics)
This novel follows Josephine through a breakdown and gradual recovery, tracing the loneliness and fragile rebuilding that connect university life and psychiatric care.
Work Information
A story of piecing the self back together after collapse.
Though fragmentary, the novel draws sharp emotional contours and stays close to the lived experience of anxiety and recovery. Its urgency as a debut is part of its strength.

Great read!

Very good.
It illustrates very well the state of mind of a person with untreated mental illness. It is a novel based on the author's personal experience which makes one feel very much in tune with the feelings of someone who is in distress. Very good.
