She entered the asylum of her own free will - but will she ever get out?An extraordinary portrait of a woman way ahead of her time, Madwoman is the story of a quest for the truth that changed the world.''Madwoman is one of the best, a magnificent portrayal of Nelly Bly in all her journalistic integrity and daring'' New York Journal of Books
