Said the Manic to the Muse
Said the Manic to the Muse | Jeanann Verlee
1 post | 4 read | 1 to read
Jeanann Verlee s second book, Said the Manic to the Muse, takes a deeper, more focused look at the erratic, whimsical, ominous, and sometimes perilous ways manic depression functions. Introduced through the careful prophecy of three archetypes: Medea, Jezebel, and Kali each a woman largely misrepresented and wholly misunderstood these poems detail the story of one woman s struggle to maintain both strength and sanity in the face of abandonment and aging. From dangerous trysts and barroom brawls to grief-induced psychosis, Said the Manic to the Muse recounts the year she lost everything, including her mind."

Recovery reading continued with a little poetry. Check out Verlee's first collection, Racing Hummingbirds for one of the best poetry books you'll read.

shawnmooney Am allergic to poetry unless the poet or someone else reads it aloud to me, but that's a marvelous title! 8y
