“A Little Life” (post 9) by Hanya Yanagihara: Misdiagnosis and Incompetent Treatment


Comment: I lost patience with this novel [when I gathered that] neither its author nor its reviewers understood that Jude had dissociative identity disorder (see posts 1-8).


1. Hanya Yanagihara. A Little Life. New York, Anchor Books, 2015/2016. 


Added March 17: Jude's suicide [probably] results from incompetent treatment of his dissociative identity disorder (a.k.a. multiple personality disorder).
