Rediscovery Project 2013
Out of the Darkness: A Poetic Journey for People Living with Acquired Brain Injury celebrates the written and visual works of individuals who have suffered an acquired brain injury (ABI). The works in this anthology are a product of Rediscovery Project 2013, a San Francisco Bay Area based poetry and expressive arts group that explores brain injury through the lens of the archetypal Hero’s Journey. This anthology captures the rich landscape of living with brain injury and the healing that’s possible through sharing, witnessing and being in community.
“If you dedicate a little time to read these poems written by people living with traumatic and acquired brain injury, they will help you access within yourself a rare depth of vulnerability, courage, surprise and insight. Who wouldn’t benefit from more of that?”
– John Fox, The Institute of Poetic Medicine
