A collection of poetry, short prose, interviews and personal stories from around the world on the themes of suicide and self-harm.
It is undeniable that putting thoughts, feelings and emotions into words, on paper, either with poetry or in a short story format, can be both therapeutic and an incredibly effective method of self-help and healing. In this brave and uncompromising second edition of
SUICIDE, 89 writers and poets in 29 countries: Australia, Bangladesh, Brazil, Canada, England, France, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, India, Israel, Mauritius, Montenegro, Namibia, Nepal, New Zealand, Pakistan, Philippines, Republic of Ireland, Romania, Scotland, Serbia, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Wales, Zimbabwe and the
USA, explore the themes of suicide and self-harm, either from their own personal perspectives and experiences, or from the experiences of friends, family and people close by. An anthology on these subjects is undoubtedly thought-provoking and emotional, but also positive and uplifting too as, for many, putting their feelings into words has set many on the road to creativity, healing and ultimately recovery.
ALL profits from the sales of
SUICIDE Vol.2 go towards promoting poetry for positive mental health.
