Hello, I am currently taking a course in clinical psychology as a part of my BSc and have a book review assignment. The idea of the assignment is to read and write a “scholarly” review of a book in which “psychopathology is a – or even the – theme” from the perspective of a clinical psychologist. The novel should fulfill these criteria:
• it’s not an autobiography (can be a biography)
• it’s written by a living author
• it’s written in English or has an English translation
As for my personal preferences (optional):
• no longer than 400 pages (I have about a month and a half to read it and write the review + i’m a slow reader and don’t have a lot of free time)
• I love fantasy but I feel like the lines can get blurred between pathology and fantastical entities or curses and what not. so it’s probably not the best for this assignment
• I am interested in reading/writing about any psychopathology but I recently found out I am autistic and would love a story about a late diagnosed autistic person or just an autistic adult
Any suggestions are appreciated! Feel free to ignore my personal preferences if you have a good book that doesn’t fit them. Thank you!
