syd barrett

Hi, I'm doing a presentation on Syd Barrett for a psychology class. Could someone please recommend a good source of material on his life and especially his illness (books, websites, etc.)? Something that talks about his personality would be especially helpful.

Thank you,

I bought the 'FooW' book&CD here two years ago I highly recomend it to any Syd fan. in this book his sister says he is not schizo or mential.

the cd has the best sounding versions of lucy lea and king bee and the two interviews with Rose are not to be missed.

Syd Barrett - A Fish Out of Water Authors: Luca Ferrari and Annie Marie Roulin Publisher: Sonic Book 2, Autumn 1996, Italy, ISBN 88-7226-320-4, 120 pages Synopsis: A CD size book about Syd Barrett. Written in both Italian and English (the English translation is not the best as it has incorrect syntax and other grammatical errors), it includes the story of Syd, photos of Syd Barrett and the Pink Floyd, an interview with Rosemary Breen in Cambridge (interview conducted on February 15, 1994 and August 15, 1995), pictures of Syd's artwork, a discography (includes official releases, videos, radio appearances, Stars live performances, bootlegs, unreleased songs, tributes to Syd Barrett and covers), a bibliography, a listing of Syd Barrett fanzines, Syd Barrett on the Internet and a 3 inch CD of (I'm a) King Bee and Lucy Lea (in Blue Tight) by the Architectural Abdabs. The most interesting aspect of this book is the interview with Rosemary Breen, Syd's sister, since she is the person closest to Syd these days and pictures of his art.
