Post Meridiem is an unreliable memoir of events that occurred in Los Angeles County between June and September 2009. From the bewildering cast of a state-run psychiatric hospital to the horrific exhibits of the Museum of the Morbid, Dan Lauer searches for comfort and solace from a severe depression-driven psychotic break from reality in all the wrong places.
Despite the harsh realities of most of the situations and the explicit descriptions of suicidal ideation, major depression, psychotic hallucinations, delusional thinking, and general despair, remember: there’s no reason this can’t be funny.
