Produktbeschreibung
In his new memoir, On Cove Mountain, author Ian Duncan discloses the true story of his commitment to a mental institution in 2001 and his sixteen-year battle to put behind him the stigma, trauma, self-doubt, and legal consequences arising from his journey through depression. Here, in unflinching detail, he describes his passage from confinement in a padded cell to freedom on the peculiar mountain that became the setting for his spiritual sojourn, the wilderness where he had to become lost before he could be found; where he encountered God in a storm, met his wife, and, in his own words, "worked out his salvation with fear and trembling." On Cove Mountain relates the shockingly commonplace ways a nice young man goes gently mad, and the odyssey undertaken to find freedom, self-understanding, and peace. This is the story of one man's exchange of depression for joy, bondage for victory, loneliness for love. This is the story of how he was found.
