Description:

Madness strips things down to their core, it takes everything and in exchange it offers more madness; and the occasional ability to see things that are not there. • The problem with insanity is that you can feel it coming but when you tell people you think you are going crazy they do not believe you. It is too distant a concept. You don't believe it yourself until you have fallen so quickly and so far that your fingernails are the only thing holding you up, balanced with your feet dangling on either side of a narrow fence with your heart and mind directly over center, so that when you do fall it will split you in two. And split equally. So there's not even a stronger side left to win. • I am aware enough to know the things I see and hear are not real but that does not mean I do not still see and hear them. I figure I will either capture my ascension from madness to as much a level of sanity for which one of my composition could hope, or I will leave a document of it all in the case that I lose.

I'm very happy to have ordered this book of original works by Lauren E. Simonutti. She is a fascinating artist, who through her work reveals a battle between mental illness and self expression that will leave you hoping she not only wins, but continues to share her very personal vision with us in books to come.
