Synopsis

A stark and lyrical account of the psyche in crisis from the author of KithTristimania tells the story of a devastating year-long episode of manic depression, culminating in a long solo pilgrimage across Spain.

An intimate and raw journey, Tristimania illuminates something of the universal human spirit.
