Said the Manic to the Muse by Jeanann Verlee

Said the Manic to the Muse by Jeanann Verlee

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.

Jeanann Verlee is a former punk rocker, poet, editor, and activist who collects tattoos and winks at boys. Her poetry has appeared in The New York Quarterly, FRiGG, PANK, and decomP, among other publications. She is the author of Racing Hummingbirds, which won the Independent Publisher Book Award Silver Medal in Poetry. She has represented NYC in National Poetry Slam contests six times, performs and leads seminars all across North America, and curates the Urbana Poetry Slam series at the Bowery Poetry Club. Her dog and a pair of origami lovebirds reside with her in New York City.
