Living in Storms: Contemporary Poetry and the Moods of Manic Depression

Manic-depressive illness, also known as bipolar disorder, is estimated to affect several million Americans. Researchers and popular writers alike argue that symptoms of the condition occur with disproportionate frequency among poets, a view that has tended to reinforce the stereotype of the mad artist. But, as poet and volume editor Thom Schramm points out, the stereotype exists in part because the existing literature has for the most part neglected the intricacies of individual lives. Living in Storms aims to bring nuance and depth to the popular imagination.
