Memorable Amnesia

Written by Justified Ecstacy & Jade Novelist

Memorable Amnesia is an anthology written by Jade Novelist and Justified Ecstasy, however the book is not only limited to these writers alone as it does include written works from other poets.

​

The book focuses on mental health within the black community, its impact on people living with them and a bit on how family, loved ones and friends of those with mental illnesses are affected. This anthology was influenced by a variety of life stories shared with Jade Novelist and Justified Ecstasy, in these stories a pattern developed due to the fact that these illnesses went unnoticed and thus the individuals suffered in silence, this does not come as a surprise as for some people mental illnesses are equivalent to one who is seeking for attention or just plain "Crazy".

​

Furthermore, the anthology contains a special section titled "Inside Voice", which brings more to the table whilst still embracing the theme of the book and placing more emphasis on cause and effect.

​

It is essential to note that this anthology is also aimed at letting people know that they are not alone.
