Before the records. Before the reforms. There was The Hollows.
Liverpool, 1758.
The Theatre of Madness begins the five-book Hollows series, following an institution and the people caught inside it, across generations.
Behind its walls, ideas about madness are shaped by fear, curiosity and control. People are observed, judged and categorised by those who hold almost complete power over what happens next.
At the centre is Eliza Wakefield.
Before she became a record, she had a name. And long before The Hollows learned how to keep its history, Eliza was determined to make sure it remembered her.
Dark historical fiction about mental health, institutional power and the people history too easily reduces to a diagnosis.
This is where The Hollows begins.
