Praise for The Madness 'Keane has not just the courage to risk death so that the most important stories can be told, as well as the eye to tell them with vivid subtlety, but also the humility to reveal the havoc that this task visits on the beholder' Spectator 'A brutally honest exploration of what motivates Keane to keep reporting on atrocities despite the toll on his mental health... Gentle but unflinching' Guardian, Book of the Day 'The Madness is engaging without resorting to sensation. Fluent prose follows the decline of the political situation - and of Keane's own mental health - in chilling, compelling detail' Observer 'Fergal Keane opens doors into closed places. He lets us look inside those complex compartments where fear, anxiety, anger and panic lurk, and he tells a story of being afraid all of his life... beautifully written... This is an important book' Irish Times 'Fergal Keane's torments might be as nothing compared to the sufferings he has observed, and his work can do nothing to alleviate those sufferings, but what chance is there of any restitution, no matter how inadequate it may be, without witnesses to the crimes of the truly guilty?' TLS 'The Madness is a heady reckoning with trauma, adrenaline and that mixture of moral courage and compulsion that drives the news cycle, Fergal Keane tells difficult, sometimes horrible truths about the world, but it is the truths he finds about himself that make this book a necessary read' Annie Enright 'A really important piece of work' Susanna Reid, on Good Morning Britain 'An immensely brave book' Tortoise 'Powerful, and heartbreaking' Audrey Magee 'The Madness is an extraordinary, captivating account of one man's journey in search of truth, as he excavates the human story from chaos' Elaine Feeney
