Synopsis

This intriguing insight into the life of a man wrongly diagnosed with schizophrenia is a revelatory read. Hill details the trying events of his life; his misdiagnosis and painful treatment, his attempts to give voice to his struggles and his arduous transition towards enlightenment. Despite his hardships, Hill's faith is never shaken and it is this faith which eventually provides the epiphany he has been looking for. But far from being a mere autobiography, this series of books is a most serious exposition of all knowledge in the history of thinking and experience; and the long-running journal is the actualisation of Hill's book, 'The Knowledge of Everything', to be published shortly.

About the Author

ANTHONY WAKEFIELD HILL left school at fifteen with practically no qualifications, determined to make his way without any. Working for thirty-odd years in London as an itinerant labourer and artist, he learnt his trade as a writer. His first book, The One and the Many, was written, for the most part, when he was twenty, but not published for forty years owing to inproficient publisher's readers.

This much-persecuted author is under continuing abuse from psychiatry - something God is getting very angry about. Having been misdiagnosed early on in his career, Mr Hill has never been given an objective or competent examination, and his case has been over-complicated by the number of inept doctors he has been under; the truth has been well-nigh irretrievably obscured. Is this writer, whom many hail as a prophet, to go to his grave with the appellation `schizophrenic' around his neck? It is not the fact that he is intellectually sound that proves his mental integrity, for even that does not preclude illness; but the content of his work, and his manifest humanity, can surely leave the unbiased reader in no doubt of his emotional probity.
