Glad to Be Mad: Poems Verging on Sanity Kim Schroeder

Go on. I dare you. Take a peek. Perhaps you will find yourself, or someone you know. Be glad. You share this madness with that person standing next to you, or the one sitting beside you and even the one that society has trussed up in a straitjacket and administered ECT to. This collection of simple and honest poems screams out in self-validation as it tracks the authors' ups, downs and observations along its learning curve, revealing intense moments of epiphany. Most importantly, the poems show there is no shame in feeling bad or different. Rejoice in being you, with all your colours, and see how normal you are!
