About this listen
A daring literary account of a young woman’s experience of psychosis by Bengali-Australian writer Sanya Rushdi.
This March, our book club discussion features Hospital, which explores the experience of psychosis and subsequent hospitalisation, drawn from the author's real-life experience. We unpack the limitations of the medical model approach towards treatment of mental health issues, shared decision-making, and the importance of empowerment and identity in recovery.
