Overview

A schizophrenic fox navigates the challenges of everyday life, including troubled relationships and daily work life, while trying to find their way in the mental health space.


A quirky, poignant, and delightful memoir of the author living with schizophrenia. The people are written as a fantastical cast of animal characters. And the author's humor somewhat masks the sadness of their story in a powerful way. We witness the disorientation and the exhaustion of the trips back and forth to the hospital, which is the reality for many people with schizophrenia. Undertones about mental healthcare not being free, and mental healthcare professionals not having empathy, hit home and make this book politically relevant as a work of graphic medicine. The ending theme of antidepressants being a mental block towards creativity is another reality for many artists in need of help.
