　　NATIONAL BESTSELLER

Julie Holland thought she knew what crazy was. Then she came

to Bellevue. For nine eventful years, Dr. Holland was the weekend

physician in charge of the psychiatric emergency room at New York

City’s Bellevue Hospital. In this absorbing memoir, Holland

recounts stories from her vast case files that are alternately

terrifying, tragically comic, and profoundly moving: the serial

killer, the naked man barking like a dog in Times Square, the

schizophrenic begging for an injection of club soda to quiet the

voices in his head, the subway conductor who watched a young woman

pushed into the path of his train.

Writing with uncommon candor, Holland supplies not only a

page-turner with all the fast-paced immediacy of a TV medical drama

but also a fascinating glimpse into the inner lives of doctors who

struggle to maintain perspective in a world where sanity is in the

eye of the beholder.

　　“In Weekends at Bellevue [Julie Holland] tells the story of her

own journey through medical school, residency, and beyond, and at

the same time gives us startling insights into minds so damaged,

human beings rendered so helpless by their own demons, that

entities resembling souls can’t help but shine through. It’s a

thrilling and meaningful trip. As I turned the pages I found myself

thinking, over and over, Oh, poor novelist that you are, you really

can’t make this stuff up.” —Michael Cunningham, author of The Hours

and Specimen Days
