Virginia Holman

4.9/5 (25616 ratings)

Description:In 1975, one year after Patty Hearst and her captors robbed Hibernia National Bank, a second kidnapping took place far from the glare of the headlines. Virginia Holman's mother, in the thrall of psychosis, spirited her two daughters to a cottage on the Virginia Peninsula, painted the windows black, and set up the house as a MASH unit for a secret war. A war that never came. The family - captive to a mother's schizophrenia and a legal system that refused to intervene - remained there for more than three years. It is the story of a young girl caught in the whirlwind of madness - a girl who chooses a brainwashed heiress as her role model. Holman's memoir vividly evokes the interior worlds of the sane and the insane and the delicate membrane in between.
