| Publisher Description: My job as a Security Guard at THE NORWICH STATE MENTAL HOSPITAL was given to me at a time when I had just about run out of money and time. Soon after I had worked there for a while, I began hearing the line from the Leonard Cohen song THE BLUE RAINCOAT that went "You're Living for Nothing, I Hope You are Keeping Some Kind of a Record". Very soon after I heard those words, I took up my camera and began taking photo's and keeping "Some Kind of a Record" My visual and written reflections make up this book, and I find them to be extremely haunting. I dedicate this book and my reflections to all the souls that spent time, as I have in THE ASYLUM. Peter Buckley McClure |
