A haunting luminous case study. Who is the mysterious 'Presence'? An explicit erotic spiritual book. The theme of Eve's lost search for her beloved Adam ascends out of the chaos of schizophrenia. What emerges is the tantalising foundation of The Circle Belief. In the midst of a mental breakdown tinged with spiritual dimensions, the author goes on a search for peace and safety based on remarkable insights into the wisdom, consolation and sheer physical delight available to us from animal, child and female inspirations. The pain and ecstasy of psychosis are harnessed to bring these discoveries into view, delivered with the author's lyrical, searching and at times heartbreakingly comical genius for self-expression. About the Author The inspiration for The Circle Belief began after the author suffered a mental breakdown and was homeless in Edinburgh.
