When compared to an ordinary person, a paranoid schizophrenic sees the world as if through a shattered mirror. But if perceptions create reality, then it is conceivable that a schizophrenic's world of shattered and reorganized perceptions could be as equally real as the "sane" world. In the mind of Frederic E. Drake, paranoid schizophrenic, every day is a fight for survival against nigh-insurmountable odds. In this collision of realities, which is illusion? What would you believe?
