Loved your pod on Wallace too. Reading these posts makes me feel smarter by association. Thank you Gideon.( As opposed to my brief foray reading code sports which just made me angry).
It was the only book I managed to finish over Christmas (The Club awaits). It’s compassionate and nailed schizophrenia, just as Mystery Spinner nailed vascular depression and ECT. The most remarkable aspect of Wallace’s remarkable story is that he lived as long as he did, whereas people with schizophrenia typically die 10 - 20 years earlier than their peers. Which may say something about the old asylums. I assume you’ve seen the Jeremy Oxley doco which is another great insight.
