The Shutter of Snow (Virago Modern Classics)
by
Coleman, Emily Holmes
Binding: Paperback
Publisher: Virago Press Ltd
Date Published: 1981
ISBN-13: 9780860681731
ISBN: 0860681734
Description: Very Good. Emily Holmes Coleman's The Shutter of Snow presents a close study of what it was like to be treated in a 19th-century mental hospital.

Coleman draws a brilliant picture of Gail's mind and its passage through the fog of her illness; portraits of other patients and the caretakers who attend them are equally striking. read more
