Poems of Melancholy, Madness, and Addiction
This anthology offers comfort for those who suffer from mental illness and those who struggle to understand it. Gathering more than 200 poems from across six centuries, it presents a remarkably wide ranging selection of poetry, thoughtfully framed, while also providing a critical-clinical introduction that asks what we mean by "e;madness"e; and "e;mental illness"e;--a question it answers in a historically engaged yet highly readable fashion.
