However, the writing is a bit disjointed and hard to follow at times. Perhaps "the Troops" would have benefited from an editor with one personality. (  ) gaialover | Sep 18, 2008 | Great, sad, disturbing and wonderfully interesting book. I could not hardly put it down. (  ) BinnieBee | May 7, 2008 | We're not really concerned. whether or not multiple personality disorder exists this is some nice nice adventure.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0425183319, Paperback)Truddi Chase began therapy to discover why she suffered from blackouts. What surfaced was terrifying: she was inhabited by 'the Troops'-92 individual personalities. This groundbreaking true story is made all the more extraordinary in that it was written by the Troops themselves. What they reveal is a spellbinding descent into a personal hell-and an ultimate deliverance for the woman they became."Fascinating...unusual and very emotionally touching." (Dr. Cornelia Wilbur, the psychiatrist who treated Sybil) "Extraordinary...A nightmarish story." (The Chicago Tribune) "Startling...powerful." (The San Francisco Chronicle) "Horrifying, compelling...extremely disturbing." (Psychology Today) "Remarkable...alarmingly real and courageous." (Toronto Sun) "Provocative reading...fascinating." (Library Journal) "Searing...a truly moving and thought-provoking work...an unplifting and inspiring story of a survivor." (Sojourner: The Women's Forum) (retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:03 -0400) The first test round has been closed. Visit the Open Shelves Classification group for details. |

I finished it last night. To be honest it was a very hard book to read. very confusing with all the troops characters. I thought it was a bit weird that the troops were writing this story. I liked Sybil much better but there were parts of this book that were really good. What a sad story. (
