進了島上的精神療養院後，我就不再裝瘋賣傻了，我的所有言行舉止都和原來的我一樣。怪的是，我的表現愈正常，醫生們就認為我的病情愈嚴重。◆臥底成功，她便能實現夢想，成為一名記者，臥底失敗，餘生可能得關在瘋人院裡，直到變成真正的瘋子……傳奇女記者──奈莉．布萊一戰成名的紀實報導經典◆專文導讀：從美國到臺灣，跨越百年的精神病院臥底行動──資深精神專科醫師／作家吳佳璇十九世紀末的美國，女性在許多領域普遍遭受歧視，進入職場甚至會被比喻為「怪物」。然而，年僅二十三歲的奈莉．布萊為了謀得記者一職，勇敢接下報社任務，潛入紐約布雷克威爾島（現名羅斯福島）臭名昭著的精神療養院臥底。這本書就是她臥底十日後，刊載於《紐約世界報》的調查記錄與報導。在這篇報導中，奈莉以緊湊明快的節奏如實記錄了自己從報社接下任務，如何為臥底行動做心理建設，在臨時之家的裝瘋過程，還有當她進入精神療養院以後，猶如人間煉獄的群體生活，其中更包括醫護人員各種令人髮指的行為舉止，以及病友的人生故事。令人不安的是，她發現許多被關在這裡的女性其實並沒有精神疾病，被送進來的理由大多是貧窮、移民身分、語言不通，或者是不符合社會對「正常女性」的期待。這些女性一旦被貼上「瘋子」的標籤，便再無自證清白的可能。奈莉在療養院待了十天，最後被報社援救出來，隨後她將這段經歷以冷靜自持、帶點幽默自嘲的第一人稱書寫成一系列報導。由於報導大受歡迎，一「報」難求，她最終同意將其內容以書籍形式出版。此書的出版不僅引發社會震撼，促成實際制度改革，更奠定了現代調查報導的基礎，在那個女性只被期待撰寫時尚、園藝等報導主題的時代，她選擇深入社會最黑暗的角落，為眾多無聲者發聲，也讓她成為美國新聞史上少見的傳奇女記者。「我進去之後，你要怎麼把我弄出來呢？」「還不知道，必要的時候，我們會公布妳的身分，說明妳裝瘋潛入療養院的緣由。」我對這項任務實在沒有把握，但是我發現，編輯比我更沒信心。◆這一關，很可能就是一輩子的事，而且尚茲太太還被關得不明不白，從來沒有人用她的語言告訴她這究竟是怎麼一回事。就算是罪犯，也有為自己的清白辯護的機會。尚茲太太用德文苦苦求問她身在何處，希望爭取自由。說著說著便哭了起來。◆布雷克威爾島上的精神療養院就像一個捕鼠籠一樣，進去很容易，但要出來幾乎是不可能的事。
