Step into and experience in person the world of mental institutions and madness.
The New Asylum is the third volume in a series of free-verse poetry anthologies and personal memoirs from Australian author Frank Prem (Small Town Kid, Devil In The Wind).
These stories are an exposé of life in the public psychiatric system, spanning five decades and describing sometimes graphically, sometimes ironically, often poignantly, and always honestly, a search for meaning in extraordinary and often incomprehensible circumstances.
The journey begins with childhood experiences of watching immigrant parents earn their living in the Mayday Hills Mental Asylum… progresses through the oddities and antics of psychiatric nurse training in the 1970s… on to the high-pressure coalface of managing regional centres facing an inundation of modern urban challenges… and finally, settles into the generally calmer waters of a small town residential facility.
Join Frank Prem on his New Asylum journey, and discover what it means to become that particular 'mental health creature' that is a psychiatric nurse.
He has been published in magazines, e-zines and anthologies, in Australia and in a number of other countries, and has both performed and recorded his work as 'spoken word'.
Frank has published several collections of free verse poetry - Small Town Kid (2018), Devil In The Wind (2019), and The New Asylum (2019). His publishing schedule in 2020 includes A Love Poetry Trilogy (Walk Away Silver Heart; A Kiss for the Worthy; and Rescue and Redemption), as well as a two part picture book - The Beechworth Bakery Bears and The Beechworth Bakery Bears (too).
Frank has also published the collaborative work - Herja Devastation (2019) together with Australian author Cage Dunn.
He and his wife live in the beautiful township of Beechworth in northeast Victoria (Australia).
