Episode Synopsis

Season 5, Episode 8
After 15 years in a psychiatric hospital, Elizabeth has been pronounced "well" and released to a group home.
With no memory of what led to her institutionalisation, she sets out to find the significance of names and words in her notebook.
Through first-person accounts by Elizabeth and her family, Laura Best has crafted a gripping novel describing the disintegration and eventual healing of a mind and relationships - before and after events in the early 1960s.
Costas Halavrezos interviews Laura about the challenge of creating Elizabeth's changing mental landscapes.
