Why is it that some writers struggle for months to come up with

the perfect sentence or phrase while others, hunched over a

keyboard deep into the night, seem unable to stop writing? In The

Midnight Disease, neurologist Alice W. Flaherty explores the

mysteries of literary creativity: the drive to write, what sparks

it, and what extinguishes it. She draws on intriguing examples from

medical case studies and from the lives of writers, from Franz

Kafka to Anne Lamott, from Sylvia Plath to Stephen King. Flaherty,

who herself has grappled with episodes of compulsive writing and

block, also offers a compelling personal account of her own

experiences with these conditions.
