by David Thomson (Author)

A screwball comedy where reality blurs with film fantasy.

In David Thomson's Connecticut, a film scholar researching movie kisses finds himself committed to a mental asylum in Connecticut. He encounters eccentric patients who seem to have stepped out of classic films, leading him to question his sanity and the nature of reality. Is he truly ill, or is Connecticut a haven for those who dare to see the world differently?

As the lines between reality and fantasy blur, he grapples with his identity and the power of storytelling. For fans of witty, character-driven narratives that explore the intersection of mental health and film history, Connecticut offers a humorous and thought-provoking journey into the heart of madness. Will he find a way to escape, or will he embrace the screwball world of Connecticut? This is a literary fiction for those who enjoy psychological explorations and dark humor.
