À propos de ce produit
Product Information
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Monopolists, the fascinating (People) story of Olympian Kevin Hall and the syndrome that makes him believe he stars in a television show of his life. Meet Kevin Hall: brother, son, husband, father, and Olympic sailor. Kevin has an Ivy League degree, a winning smile, and throughout his adult life, he has been engaged in an ongoing battle with a person that doesn't exist to anyone but him: the Director. In the tradition of Kay Redfield Jamison's An Unquiet Mind, journalist and NYT bestselling author Mary Pilon's The Kevin Show reveals the many-sided struggle--of Kevin, his family, and the medical profession--to understand and treat a psychiatric disorder whose euphoric highs and creative ties to pop culture have become inextricable from Kevin's experience of himself. Kevin suffers from what doctors are beginning to call the Truman Show delusion, a form of bipolar disorder named for the 1998 movie in which the main character realizes he is the star of a reality TV show. When the Director commands Kevin to do things, the results often lead to handcuffs, hospitalization, or both. Once he nearly drove a car into Boston Harbor. His girlfriend, now wife, was in the passenger seat. Interweaving Kevin's perspective--including excerpts from his journals and sketches--with police reports, medical records, and interviews with those who were present at key moments in his life, The Kevin Show is a bracing, suspenseful, and eye-opening view of the role that mental health plays in a seemingly ordinary life.

- 3***k (221)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéItem arrived as described and great value. Second time I have bought from this seller and happy with the book at a great price. While the condition is good, I will say though, this book wasn’t sent in a padded envelope like the first I bought. It was sent in a grey plastic wrap and Courier put it through the letter box and without sufficient padding it could have gotten damaged. Thankfully book is ok but padded envelope I feel should be used each time to ensure it arrives as described.

- i***l (1332)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéItem heavily damaged when recieved. However this could very well be that it was damaged in post as the outside packaging was also damaged. Would have been best to send in cardboard. However I received a quick response and apology from seller with a promise to look into the issue, and got a full refund. No issues there. Won't stop me purchasing from them again.
- x***o (887)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifiéAnother problem-free purchase from a tried and very tested seller. Accurately described, as are all other books I have previously bought. Promptly posted, so didn’t have to wait long to receive my next good read. Always competitively priced items which also adds to the appeal of buying from this seller. Looking forward to buying many more books from this seller. Thank you.
