A wide-ranging, future-focused study from a variety of cultural and academic perspectives, this illustrated book brings together a range of internationally recognised scholars committed to mapping and unpacking the political, historical, affective, and aesthetic dimensions of madness and mental distress in literary and visual cultures.

Raising vital questions about the nature of madness and the limits of personhood, the practices of care and politics of reality, this valuable book asks how the various disciplines it represents might shape more radical and tender horizons for those living under the descriptions of mental illness.

This is a book for anyone concerned with examining new models of interdependent psychic-sociality. Put simply, it asks how we might make life more liveable for ourselves, for each other, and crucially, for strangers we will never meet.
