What's Normal Anyway? Celebrities' Own Stories Of Mental Illness - Plot & Excerpts
RICHARD MABEY Writer, broadcaster, and naturalist ‘I just ceased to be anything other than a person who is trapped in a toxic worry about their own worry. Bubbles like this occur: they are completely separate from what’s outside. You are trapped in this self-referential cobweb of negativity.’ Born in 1941, Richard Mabey grew up in the Chilterns and was educated at the University of Oxford. He worked as a lecturer, and later as an editor at Penguin Books, before becoming a full-time writer in 1974. Since that time, Richard has written over thirty books, including: Food for Free, Weeds: The Story of Outlaw Plants, Whistling in the Dark: In Pursuit of the Nightingale, Beechcombing: The Narratives of Trees, Turned Out Nice Again: On Living With the Weather, and Gilbert White, which won the Whitbread Biography Award. He is also the author of the bestselling Flora Britannica, which won a National Book Award, and Nature Cure, his memoir, which was shortlisted for the Whitbread, J.R. Ackerley and Ondaatje prizes.
