Synopsis

Product Description
Susan McKeown's seventh solo album is an exploration of Creativity & Madness through the lyrics of great poets who were writing through the lens of depression, mania or substance abuse. With an introduction by Kay Jamison, author of 'Touched with Fire: Manic Depressive Illness and the Artistic Temperament' the album features poems by Byron, Anne Sexton, Theodore Roethke, Lord Byron, Gwendolyn Brooks, Nuala Ní Dhomhnaill, Gwyneth Lewis, Hayden Carruth and James Clarence Mangan, as well as songs from John Dowland, Violeta Parra and Leonard Cohen. A portion of the proceeds from the album will benefit mental health organizations NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness), Fountain House, BC2M (Bring Change to Mind) and MDSG (Mood Disorder Support Group).
