Title: Eyebrows and Other Fish
Description: Chipmunkapublishing, 2007. Paperback. Pp: 240. Scally's incredibly funny and captivating Eyebrows and Other Fish is a very personal account of the author's voyage from a heartbreaking childhood through to being an adult diagnosed with schizophrenia. The fact that Scally keeps us laughing throughout the book when tackling issues such as child abuse, social prejudice, violence and the chronic symptoms of schizophrenia is a testament to both his character and comic gift as a writer. But don't let this fool you, the book is equally a serious exploration of the barriers faced by a mental health service user and a real revelation into how schizophrenic thought patterns can manifest themselves. The intimate insight Scally provides would be invaluable to anyone interested in mental health issues. This thought provoking book is not for the faint hearted - the author pulls no punches throughout. It is unique in that it will leave you with both a sense of angry indignation and deep admiration.
