Reviews
Publisher Synopsis
"A tour-de-force memoir....Bottoms writes like a poet, he writes like he is on fire." - Esquire, Book of the Year, 2000; "Angelhead is a brilliant, albeit inconceivably sad book. The fact that Bottoms survived the ordeal is incredible. But the fact that he could write about it with such pathos and insight is nothing less than extraordinary." - Atlanta Journal-Constitution; "Greg Bottoms has provided a biographical novel about his brother that may be as close as most of us will ever get to knowing what it is to be truly mad. Angelhead is a story nearly as terrifying as the disease it describes." - Psychology Today; "Bottoms puts his sharp-edged poetic sensibility to work and has produced a tremendously unsettling yet compassionate book." - Washington Post" Read more...
