Greetings everyone!
Yet to read any of these books but a couple sound worthy of a read or two ...
For some reason I was attracted to this one -
"Odes to lithium" by Shira Erlichman
These are undeniably love poems to mental health, chronicling the ups and downs of life with bipolar disorder. Erlichman questions what is “normal” and intricately navigates this lived experience through dealing with parents, doctors, lovers, Björk. With visuals alongside the poems, everything in this collection contains intimate and honest examinations of the stigma and realities of living with bipolar disorder as well as the imaginings of what life would be like, what a person might be like, without it.
7 Debut Collections That Continue the Lineage of Queer Poetry - Electric Literature
Enjoy!
