All In The Mind
Alastair Campbell
Alastair Campbell's powerful first novel is a gripping portrait of the strange dependency between patient and doctor.
Martin Sturrock desperately needs a psychiatrist. The problem? He is one.
Emily is a traumatized burn victim; Arta a Kosovan refug
ee recovering from a rape. David Temple is a long term depressive, while the Rt. Hon. Ralph Hall MP lives in terror of his drinking problem being exposed. Very different Londoners, but they share one thing: every week they spend an hour at the Prince
Regent Hospital, revealing the secrets of their psyche to Professor Martin Sturrock. Little do they know that Sturrock's own mind is not the reassuring place they believe it to be. For years he has hidden in his work, ignoring his demons. But now hi
s life is falling apart, and as his ghosts come back to haunt him, the only person he can turn to is a patient.
Set over a life-changing weekend, Alastair Campbell's astonishing first novel is both a comedy and tragedy of ordinary lives. It is rich
in compassion for those whose days are spent on the edge of the abyss.
