Coles Alligators Don't Know They're Monsters: A Memoir About Mental Illness at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
This book was written in the hope of reaching out to primarily the non-psychiatric medical community and non-psychiatric hospitals, but also each of us whom has ever ignored, made disparaging remarks or done nothing about someone they knew or loved who was acting irrationally consistently and continually over a longer than normal period of time. We've seen time and time again evidence of mentally ill people who have killed while in a psychotic state and still it appears to me that there is not enough attention paid to recognizing, getting help for and properly diagnosing the type and degree of mental illness some people have. This book is also a tribute to my mother for the poetry that she composed throughout her life and never published. I believe that some of this poetry has a direct link to her mental illness, given the times in her life that I recall her state of mind. If I believe the poem has a direct link to a period of her life, it is contained within the body of the text. The remainder of her poetry is contained in Chapter 11.
