Synopsis "Todas las Esquizofrenias (in Spanish)"

Esmé Weijun Wang, autora de Todas las esquizofrenias, no recibió el diagnóstico oficial de trastorno esquizoafectivo de tipo bipolar hasta 2013, ocho años después de haber comenzado a sufrir alucinaciones. Aunque era capaz de llevar una vida relativamente convencional, en ocasiones se veía asaltada por episodios psicóticos que la persuadían de estar muerta, o de que unas arañas le horadaban el cerebro, o de que un androide había suplantado a su marido. Con enorme cercanía y una honestidad inquebrantable, Esmé Weijun Wang relata su historia y arroja luz sobre la enfermedad al examinarla desde su propia vivencia íntima, revelando cómo se siente la esquizofrenia desde dentro. Al hilo de su propio diagnóstico y de las muchas manifestaciones de la esquizofrenia en su vida, Wang reflexiona sobre el tema desde muy diferentes perspectivas, que oscilan desde las etiquetas que utilizamos para hablar de enfermedad mental hasta su manera de vestir o maquillarse para mostrarse como una persona de «funcionamiento alto»; desde la experiencia traumática del internamiento forzoso hasta su decisión personal de renunciar a la maternidad. Merecedor del Premio Graywolf Press de No Ficción, Todas las esquizofrenias es un libro directo, intenso y conmovedor, que proporciona una mirada única a una enfermedad que durante demasiado tiempo ha sido mal diagnosticada y tristemente incomprendida.

Esmé Weijun Wang is an American writer, essayist, and mental health advocate born in the Midwest, daughter of Taiwanese immigrants. Her work explores the intersections of identity, mental illness, and creativity.

She is the author of the novel The Border of Paradise (2016), a gothic family drama that was highlighted as one of the best books of the year by NPR and Electric Literature. Her collection of essays The Collected Schizophrenias (2019) became a New York Times bestseller and earned her the Graywolf Nonfiction Prize, the Whiting Award, and inclusion in Granta's “Best of Young American Novelists” list in 2017.

Wang has been recognized for her honest and nuanced approach to mental health, especially in her own experience with schizoaffective disorder. In 2013, she suffered from Cotard's syndrome, a rare condition in which people believe they are dead. This experience inspired her to found The Unexpected Shape Writing Academy, a space for writers facing physical or mental limitations.

In addition to her literary work, Wang has been invited to share her story on media outlets like the Today Show, NPR, and CBC, and has written for The New York Times, The New Yorker, and Flavorwire.

She currently resides in San Francisco, where she continues to write and teach, demonstrating that creativity can flourish even amidst adversity.

Es un libro que contiene varios ensayos sobre la vida de la autora, una mujer queer que vive con trastorno esquizoafectivo. Lo que más destaco es la ardua investigación que ha realizado sobre las distintas políticas pûblicas respecto a la salud mental y el internamiento forzoso en las clínicas de E.U. Sin duda ha derribado muchos prejuicios que tenía sobre este trastorno.
