She spent most of the next two years in the ward for teenage girls in a psychiatric hospital as renowned for its famous clientele--Sylvia Plath, Robert Lowell, James Taylor, and Ray Charles--as for its progressive methods of treating those who could afford its sanctuary. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKaysen's memoir encompasses horror and razor-edged perception while providing vivid portraits of her fellow patients and their keepers.
