About the Author
Fernando Balius is a philosopher and a contingent worker. He has taken part in various social movements over the last two decades, about the same amount of time that he has been considering the relationship between madness and society. His favorite place to think is on a bike.<br /><br />Mario Pellejer describes himself as a “graphic storyteller” rather than an illustrator. He uses simple drawings full of symbolism to tell genuine stories as a way of contributing something of value to the world.
From the Back Cover
A portrayal in graphic novel format of the author’s battle with auditory hallucinations, depicted as a monster, and his journey to understand and cope with his illness.

Paperback. Condition: new. Pellejer, Mario (illustrator). Paperback. Fernando Balius was a perfectly ordinary, if misunderstood, young adultuntil he started hearing voices.In Traces of Madness, Fernando describes what it feels like, both mentally and physically, to lose your grip on reality. His life spins out of control when the voices he hears inside his head, depicted in the narrative as a monster, work to destroy his self-esteem and, worse, urge him to hurt himself. Various psychiatric diagnoses and prescribed medications do more harm than good, prompting Fernando to question whether stifling his voices is truly the right path for him. Throughout his experiences, he finds that his connections with others lend him the strength to survive.Mario Pellejers moving illustrations bring Nandos remarkable story to life. This raw and uniquely hopeful graphic memoir shows the power of community and understanding and encourages us all to push back in solidarity against the pervasive stigma surrounding mental illness. "Originally published in Spanish as Desmesura: Una historia cotidiana de locura en la cuidad by Edicions Bellaterra."
