{"product_id":"9781462402922","title":"All in My Mind and No One Will Listen","description":"\u003cp\u003eAfter a short, difficult stint in the US Navy, where I developed paranoid schizophrenia, I lived in several places. I lived in Cleveland, Ohio, and the surrounding area, Woonsocket, Rhode Island, and Boulder, Colorado, before settling back with my parents. I wrote this book while living with my parents in the 1980s. I felt I had a story to tell, and I had no one to talk to. I told my story with words. I really do not always know what is real and what is not. I have good word association skills and like writing a little to try and say a lot. I wrote this book exclusively in bars and diners. I wrote because, though I was around people, I was alone. This is how I could talk to myself. I wrote my feelings about the experiences I had lived through in my life. This book is a window into my heart and soul. I hope these poems will have meaning to you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Inspiring Voices","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47183061090544,"sku":"9781462402922","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781462402922_p0.jpg?v=1763676834","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781462402922","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
