Abstract
Seven people die in deep sleep therapy and a woman dies from a bee-sting in the grounds of a psychiatric clinic, Mandala, where inmates are encouraged to live out their delusions and where the doctor rapes his patients in the Sleeping Beauty Ward. Carmel Bird's examinations of the secrets of the human mind is a chronicle of tragedy that is inadvertently revealed in the search for a lost library book. It is also a compelling portrait of a doctor whose lust for power is a form of madness.
