In 'Notes from a Madhouse', Christine Lavant offers us a moving and profound autobiographical account of her stay in a psychiatric hospital. Through an intimate and reflective prose, the author immerses us in her experiences, exploring themes such as oppression, insurrection and surrender. This book is the story of a woman who struggles to dedicate herself to reading and writing, defying social conventions and seeking her own voice in a hostile environment. Lavant, one of the most admired Austrian poets, gives us a courageous and personal testimony about her suicide attempt, the coexistence with other patients and her tireless search for beauty in the midst of suffering.
