The book presents a gripping account of Nellie Bly's undercover experience in a 19th-century mental asylum, where she exposes the appalling conditions and the severe mistreatment of female patients. By posing as a patient at the Women's Lunatic Asylum on Blackwell's Island, Bly reveals the harsh realities and injustices faced by those deemed insane, shining a light on the urgent need for reform in mental health care. Her courageous investigation not only challenges societal perceptions of mental illness but also advocates for the rights of vulnerable individuals.
