The Disorder Diaries chronicles neurological disorders within the arts, focusing on artists, writers, thinkers, and musicians who lived and worked with these diverse states of being. These include Ludwig van Beethoven, Caspar David Friedrich, Emily Dickinson, Lewis Carroll, Arthur Rimbaud, Ludwig Wittgenstein, F.
