Meer over deze vluchtkamer
Nellie Bly is the pseudonym of the groundbreaking American journalist Elizabeth Jane Cochrane. As a writer, Bly liked to make a stand for female workers, but under editorial pressure she was repeatedly redirected to the “women’s pages”. So, Nellie took matters into her own hands and left for Mexico to work as a foreign correspondent. In 1887, Bly moved to New York, where she applied for Joseph Pulitzers’ newspaper, the New York World. For an undercover assignment, she vexed insanity so that she would be locked up in Women’s Lunatic Asylum on Blackwell’s Island, where rumors reported the most brutal misconducts. Nelly managed to escape the mental institution after ten horrible days. In her world-famous ‘Ten days in a mad house’, she wrote about the cruelty and neglect she had seen in the psychiatric hospital. Will you be able to escape from this god-forgotten place, or will you remain locked up for the rest of your lives… like so many others?
