| For many of us illness refers solely to the physical. Accidents and disease wear us down, hiccup our life from childhood to old age. But everyone empathises, understands and helps us on the road to recovery. Mental illness though can still carry a stigma. A case of ‘you’re not trying hard enough’, ‘or knuckling down and getting on with it’. But in more recent decades mental issues have come to be recognised as an illness, a disease rather than an affliction. We all remember horror stories of lobotomy’s and electric shock being used to ‘cure’ what society viewed as anti-social behaviour but illness, mental or physical is very real. Depression, schizophrenia, breakdown, psychosis, are alarming events to have or to witness. In this volume our classic authors including Sherwood Anderson, Amy Levy, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Barry Pain and many others explore this oft neglected and most difficult of topics. 1 - Short Stories About Mental Illness - An Introduction 2 - Diary of a Madman by Nikolai Gogol 3 - The Yellow Wall Paper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman 4 - Sokratics in the Strand by Amy Levy 5 - A Complete Recovery by Barry Pain 6 - Diary of a Lunatic by Leo Tolstoy 7 - Adventure by Sherwood Anderson 8 - Miss Ogilivy Finds Herself by Radclyffe Hall 9 - Hide And Seek or Pliatki by Fyodor Sologub 10 - Brothers by Sherwood Anderson 11 - Fear by Catherine Wells 12 - The Diary of a God by Barry Pain 13 - Shut Out by F Anstey 14 - The Miracle by John Davys Beresford 15 - The Lie by Leonid Andreyev 16 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 1 by Edgar Allan Poe 17 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 2 by Edgar Allan Poe 18 - The Last of Squire Ennismore by Charlotte Riddell 19 - Cohen of Trinity by Amy Levy 20 - The City by Leonid Andreyev 21 - In the Séance Room by Lettice Galbraith 22 - A Red Flower by Vsevolod Garshin 23 - Hands by Sherwood Anderson 24 - Silence by Leonid Nikolaevich Andreyev 25 - Paul's Case by Willa Cather |
