Lillian Burke

I am an Irish academic. I am currently teaching English in England. I am looking to further my research interests in literary theory, literature and mental health. I wrote my PhD thesis on schizophrenia and I have also written a book on the subject which will be released shortly. It is entitled "The Deconstructive Owl of Minerva: An Examination of Schizophrenia through Philosophy, Psychoanalysis and Postmodernism." As well as theory I am also very interested in theatre, art appreciation and music in the area of mental health.
