Description of the Book:
 
When Cyanide Tastes Sweet is a collection of poems formed through insecurity and unease: representations of mental illness, trauma, and neurodivergence.
With a selection of lived experience contexts, from the dull safety of a psychiatric hospital to the uncomfortable bone-capsule of the author’s brain, this book aims to illuminate the constant struggle for balance between illness and wellness, and to examine the destructive potential of our own minds.
