{"product_id":"the-bullet","title":"The bullet","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn August 2014, Tom Lee and his parents drove out to visit Severalls Hospital, a former in-patient psychiatric hospital. Closed since the 1990s, as part of a nationwide shuttering of psychiatric institutions, the buildings now stand derelict and overgrown. But in the recent past, the name 'Severalls' resounded with dread and fear, entering local lexicon as a place where the strange, deranged and dangerous were 'kept away'. Among those strange, deranged and dangerous people were Tom's own parents. 'The Bullet' is a memoir of their time in Severalls, and the breakdowns and difficulties that led them there - often against their will. It is also Tom's own story of his struggle with his fragmenting mental health - a hereditary bullet he believed he'd dodged - and the extraordinary physical crises that precipitated them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Granta Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44169158295703,"sku":"9781783785049","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/9857\/1159\/files\/9781783785049.jpg?v=1714830617","url":"https:\/\/bookbag.mom\/products\/the-bullet","provider":"Bookbag Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
