Description
Why I Chase Comedians and Other Bipolar Tales is written with self-observational humour and a comical self-deprecating irony.
Frankie Owens takes the reader inside the turbulent mind of someone afflicted by hypermania.
He deals with the extremities of the bipolar condition - highs, lows, in-betweens - allowing readers to understand its overwhelming nature.
Written in the style of his acclaimed Little Book of Prison, this new work follows a relapse when the author (founder of the Read and Grow Society and by now a respected, law-abiding exponent of Criminology and Literacy) found himself back in prison following a manic episode.
The book shows how he struggled with booming ideas, breathtaking feats of imagination, coming down to Earth and dealing with the wreckage.
It contrasts the out-and-out ability of this well-respected expert in criminology and literacy with bizarre behaviour as he serves time a second time around and rebuilds his life once more.
A rare journey into the bipolar mind which 'opens-up' on mental health.
A raw, challenging, humorous account.
