"I read this book for a Culture and Personality class during my undergrad at EMU. I remember liking it as it gave some substantial evidence to some social triggers to schizophrenia."
"A well-written ethnography is such a joy - and a rarity. I love this book, but be sure to read this edition. The new introduction is not to be missed. It describes her return to the Irish village she wrote about, and the - shall we say emphatic? - reaction of the villagers to her book. Gossipy, novelistic, and incredibly smart."
