Product Description

Synopsis
Not a single night has passed within the past two years in which Fredrik, a Danish medical student, hasn't had a recurring dream of his own violent death. An exhausted and confused Fredrik decides to spend time alone on the southern Icelandic coast, where he meets Marianna, a Finnish art student. As the two begin traveling together, Fredrik delves into the depths of his mind and into the dark world of uncontrolled bipolar illness. While Fredrik attempts to learn more about his illness and persistent dream, death and reincarnation, and his older brother's suicide, Marianna is facing many of her own challenges as she also battles schizophrenia. After he returns to Denmark, Fredrik's psychiatrist recommends that he sign up for a clinical trial for Soar, an experimental drug used to treat post--traumatic stress disorder by recreating experiences in patients' minds. As Fredrik begins the trial, the pharmaceutical company begins placing increasing demands on him to continue taking the drug so he can provide them with the data they need.As Fredrik and Marianna learn to live with psychiatric illness, they begin to share a unique view of the world as their journey leads them to the rebirth of infinite possibilities they never could have imagined.

5.0 out of 5 stars Page turner, 2 Nov 2008
This book is a great one, delving to the depths of mental illness through a tender love story. It is an absolute page-turner. Awaiting many more books of the same quality from a very promising up and coming new author.
