What if you were told that the way you saw the world was completely wrong? For years, Ioakim Eleftheros heard voices giving him instructions. He believed that all conversations and encounters he had were being broadcast to the entire world. He relied on coincidence to make his decisions for him, confident that the universe was preparing him to take up his role as a messiah. He could never have imagined that the rest of humanity was living in a reality that looked nothing like his own. Angel of Islington is compelling reading Set against a backdrop of distorted thoughts, vivid inner-city colours and global trekking, Ioakim's journey is as spectacular as it is apocalyptic. This candid memoir gives a unique insight into the effects of schizophrenia and manic-depression on a man's mind.
