He was a rebel and an
anarchist. He was a diligent student of the Bible. He was a
paranoid schizophrenic…
Incarcerated for 26 years in a
vast psychiatric facility, the narrator of Nine Ninety-Nine
hates the hospital with a passion. Each of the hated treatments
he receives symbolizes various social and political factors. He
views the hospital and all those who attempt to treat him as
part of a frightening, malevolent and sadistic outfit.
And yet, there is something
more waiting for him, something outside of the hospital walls.
As his story progresses down unknown paths, he may find
something beyond the illness that has debilitated him for so
long in the eye-opening journey of Nine Ninety-Nine.
