Fiction podcast, read by Author Duncan MacLeod. "When Everything Cracks" is the chronicle of a young gay man in 1980s San Francisco who comes unglued during a seance and derails his mental boxcar. Told from his perspective, it is a narrative of identity-swapping, alien abduction, incarceration, and medical torture. Seen through the lens of reality, it is the chronicle of a psychotic episode and its aftermath. It is a memoir told by a very unreliable narrator. Reviews of the novel: Take a little bit of glitter, mix in punk-era San Francisco, stir with psychosis, and you have the backdrop for Duncan MacLeod's "When Everything Cracks." This first-person tale of one youth's descent into madness is funny, touching, insightful. The author takes us inside the manic mind and shows us the thin line between sanity and insanity that lives inside all of us. This story is full of heart, truth, and understanding. A delicate first-hand perspective of what it is like to lose one's grasp on the fragile rope of reality. The author creatively weaves tragedy and humor in a subtle balance on the sanity high-wire. The touching emotions and events are easy to read, understand and empathize with. It shines light into the darkness of what happens when we fall.2023 心理学 心理学・心の健康 衛生・健康的な生活
