South is a mental patient at the State Hospital at Camarillo, California. "In a literary interview", writes Publishers Weekly, "South, an institutionalized writer, recounts his life before his breakdown. Reality is a friend South only occasionally entertains. The subject of writer-as-basketcase certainly is not new, but the comic pant of the author's prose, as well as the unconventional combination of narrative and records of a literary interview with South, make this slim book worth reading.
