Description
“Hidden Valley Road contains everything: scientific intrigue, meticulous reporting, startling revelations, and, most of all, a profound sense of humanity. It is that rare book that can be read again and again.”
-David Grann, author of Killers of the Flower Moon

One of the New York Times’ “20 most anticipated books of 2020”: the heartrending story of a mid-century American family with twelve children, six of them diagnosed with schizophrenia, that became science’s great hope in the quest to understand the disease.

“An extraordinary case study and tour de force of reporting.”
-Sylvia Nasar, author of A Beautiful Mind
