Description
The book by a well-known author authentically and boldly records, as one of the first of its kind, his gradual descent into depression and subsequent journey to recovery. It describes events from his trip to Paris in 1985, when his condition began to deteriorate seriously, and through a collage of experiences, self-reflections, speculations, and journalistic accounts, it reveals the causes and consequences of depression, pointing to the role of this illness in the lives of other writers (Camus, Levi, Gary) and personalities, and generally opens many previously overlooked topics related to depression. The urgency of the artistic statement is connected with many practical observations and reflections, and for this reason, Visible Darkness, the last major work of William Styron, has become a classic of its kind.
