Synopsis:

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.
