Among the Mad

The depiction of psychiatric care feels very authentic and nuanced. I'm curious whether the author researched specific practices or aimed to highlight the era's misconceptions.

The character's struggles felt so raw and real, but I wondered if their decisions were shaped more by the era or the individual personality. What were others' impressions?

The historical backdrop added so much depth, especially with the social and political tensions. I'm interested in what drew the author to this particular time and place.
