Description
This memoir recounts a childhood spent in the care of an eccentric psychiatrist and his equally unconventional family. The author navigates a world where traditional rules are abandoned, replaced by a chaotic yet strangely loving environment. It's a darkly humorous and unflinching look at survival and resilience amidst extraordinary circumstances, exploring themes of family, identity, and the search for belonging.
