“Diary of a Madwoman” is a Fiery tirade against the never-ending struggles of civilization, a confessional wide-eyed rant which rambles with hyacinth and azaleas on the fervent tongue, and tells the story of one crazy Chinawoman named Lydia who haunts the city Berkeley with her high-minded neurosis and beatific stammers. As she befriends the mysterious old Mr. Wing, and sings taps with her chums Mallarmé and Athena, the fantastic three-ring tent of the whole city comes down in a slap of enlightenment that leaves the heart beating cold; thrice witty, and full of come-atcha gems of linguistic bravura, “Diary of a Madwoman” is a young school-girl’s dream vehicle of unforgettable voices and nomenclature, a journey into self-hood in that maddening night when the mind exploded into nowhere.
