Product Description

#1 New York Times Bestseller Oprah'S Book Club Pick One Of Gq's Top 50 Books Of Literary Journalism In The 21st Century The heartrending story of a midcentury American family with twelve children, six of them diagnosed with schizophrenia, that became science's great hope in the quest to understand the disease. "Reads like a medical detective journey and sheds light on a topic so many of us face- mental illness. " Oprah WinfreyDon and Mimi Galvin seemed to be living the American dream. After World War Ii, Don's work with the Air Force brought them to Colorado, where their twelve children perfectly spanned the baby boom- the oldest born in 1945, the youngest in 1965. In those years, there was an established script for a family like the Galvins-aspiration, hard work, upward mobility, domestic harmony-and they worked hard to play their parts. But behind the scenes was a different story- psychological breakdown, sudden shocking violence, hidden abuse. By the mid-1970s, six of the ten Galvin boys, one after another, were diagnosed as schizophrenic. How could all this happen to one family?What took place inside the house on Hidden Valley Road was so extraordinary that the Galvins became one of the first families to be studied by the National Institute of Mental Health.
