THE PEST MAIDEN: The Story of Lobotomy

This harrowing narrative is about a woman's experience with mental illness and its inhuman treatment through lobotomy. Told in individual poems, Jean Heuser began as a bright and beautiful ballet dancer, and her sad story is infused with memories of her humor and charm.
