The Demons' Play
by Holly Ann
A ground-breaking work of fiction, in which the author uses the format of a play, along with various other visual stimuli, to allow the reader an intriguing opportunity to enter the life of someone who suffers from mental illness. Taking place in the form of a story about an innovative support group, Holly Ann’s first hand experience brings the reality of mental illness to life in a way barely touched upon before. As a survivor of serious mental illness, and founder of an important social media group to support others, she is perhaps uniquely educated to write on the subject. But her talent is what brings the book to life: breathtakingly honest, and relentlessly optimistic, this is a book which could change the conversation on mental health.
