Good Life to Perfection Perception: An Autobiography by Karl Lorenz Willett is the story of the author trying to make sense of his life. Living with a mental illness is not easy and fighting that illness is even more difficult. Karl Lorenz Willett shares his story as to how he lives his life the best he can, not looking for perfection but looking for that balance that allows him to reach his full potential. From finding the perfect balance between medications, staying motivated, times when he loses control over his life, managing his finances and getting back on his feet, the author shares everything he goes through and how he goes through it. He shares how finding God helped him, how he tried to research to become better and what kind of “therapies” aren’t working for him.

Good Life to Perfection Perception is such a personal book. I am in awe of Karl Lorenz Willett for sharing something like this with the general public. It takes a special kind of courage to share such private information and do such a good job of it as well. I believe that representation is very important, especially for mental illnesses such as Schizophrenia. I think reading this book will give courage to people who are suffering in any capacity to do better, to do what they want, and know that they are not alone in their experiences. The author says he is “addicted to doing the right thing” and somehow he is doing it. By sharing his experiences, his struggles and his triumphs, he shows that he doesn’t allow anything to hold him back in life.

The prose will make you stop and appreciate it. The narrative is powerful because it has been infused with the author’s personal experiences and emotions. I enjoyed reading this book because it allowed me to see myself in a better light, understand myself and appreciate myself for who I am. This is a wonderful book, one that will allow you to explore yourself and enjoy the life you have because no matter what hardships you have, it is still yours and it is beautiful.

Author Karl Lorenz Willett presents his autobiographical work in both an uncensored and unedited form, which is both a blessing and a curse to the book overall.
