Description

This is Barbara Goulden's first novel and she hopes it injects a refreshing dose of humour into the serious business of mental illness.

She knows from personal experience what a tremendous support the families and friends of sufferers can be to each other.

But perhaps few people appreciate the help patients and ex-patients can also be to one another. Especially those living in the sort of rehabilitation house featured in Knock Knock, Who's There?

The kind of place nobody wants in their neighbourhood....

About the Author

Barbara Goulden has worked as a journalist on weekly and evening newspapers for most of the past 35 years.

She still remembers the sense of relief she felt after finally being given a name for the condition which was creating such mystifying and upsetting thought patterns in a close relative.

Even though the diagnosis of schizophrenia probably helped Barbara more than the relative who was actually doing battle with the illness, at least it was a starting point for gaining some understanding.

She went on to join the National Schizophrenia Fellowship - now Rethink - and became one of the founding members of the Coventry group.
