By: Stephen Johnson     
A powerful look at the extraordinary healing effect of music on sufferers of mental illness, including author Stephen Johnson's struggle with bipolar disorder.

BBC music broadcaster Stephen Johnson explores the power of Shostakovich’s music during Stalin’s reign of terror, and writes of the extraordinary healing effect of music on sufferers of mental illness. Johnson looks at neurological, psychotherapeutic and philosophical findings, and reflects on his own experience, where he believes Shostakovich’s music helped him survive the trials and assaults of bipolar disorder.

There is no escapism, no false consolation in Shostakovich’s greatest music: this is some of the darkest, saddest, at times bitterest music ever composed. So why do so many feel grateful to Shostakovich for having created it—not just Russians, but westerners like Stephen Johnson, brought up in a very different, far safer kind of society? The book includes interviews with the members of the orchestra who performed Shostakovich’s Leningrad Symphony during the siege of that city.

Lightweight, Easy to Install, and Holds Up Well
Size: Full, Color: Black
This bed skirt has been a great purchase. It’s very lightweight, which actually made it super easy to put on the bed without a struggle. Once in place, it looks nice and does exactly what it’s supposed to do. It’s also held up well to my almost-teenager being a little reckless at times, no tearing or issues so far. For the price, it’s definitely a good value. Overall, simple, functional, and worth it if you need a clean finished look for your bed.

Great for the price
Size: Full, Color: Bright White
Great for the price. The fabric is thin and not made well but for the price it’ll do. Must iron it so that it lays correctly but I figured I’d have to.

Awesome product
Size: King, Color: Navy Blue
From this point forward, this is the only company that I would use. All is one color, and not having the white fabric in the middle is a bonus!
