I admire Styron as much for being a writer par excellence as a brave warrior in the battle against his almost ineffable psychosomatic agony.

This is a piece of writing so eloquently and gracefully composed, despite being ‘outlandishly macabre’, that compels me to confront my own psychical demons while moving me to the edge of belated catharsis.

I'm way beyond appreciating the life of getting to read this book recently. My life had changed drastically after grad school, and I was drifting far away from the summer when I was 15; when I started to learn about depression and PTSD, and so much more lat...

美国作家William Styron非常著名的关于抑郁症的回忆录，作为lived experience of depression其中文段被广为引用，许多年前曾翻译过其中若干章节，去年曾有出版社朋友联系过我，但不知后文如何，不知是否会引进国内，是不多的文笔极佳的抑郁症叙事。

W.S.对于抑郁症的自我探索，心理描写和比喻真的是绝了，个人觉得最感人的是作者讲他把日记本扔掉准备自杀然后突然在半夜觉醒意识到自己还不能放弃决定第二天早上住院的故事。就和这本书的书名darkness visible一样，路的尽头会有光明，希望所有有抑郁症的人能够得到帮助，战胜病魔
