Madness and Me
DescriptionThis is a journey into schizophrenia, Into the core and heart of it, And the aim is that .... The reader should never find his way out again .... It is a book as a trap, For you who call yourselves sane, Perhaps need to be caught in the necessary snare that is madness ... About the AuthorZekria Ibrahimi (born in 1959) is defined by his schizophrenia. It first hit him long ago, in his late teens. He is fifty years old now, almost a pensioner, and he does not always want to remember how, as an adolescent in the late 1970's, he suddenly became afraid of everything surrounding him, and, worst of all, of himself. He would run around the countryside and knock at the doors of strangers b...
How to Be Sectioned
DescriptionLet us be as unrepentantly weird as possible about this play... We do not want to be respectable and precise... Schizophrenia is not a neat thing. It is amorphous, it is grotesquely psychedelic, and this play wants you to participate in schizophrenia at its most macabre, all the way to death and beyond... We are in the underbelly of society, we are where shame and terror intersect, we are amidst the predators and the vulnerable... This is the story of the System that feeds off the doomed... This play hopes that you too will seek to be a part of schizophrenia, of what is the 'other'. Why stagnate in a complacent sanity? Explode into insanity instead... About the AuthorZekria Ibrahi...
Christmas Poems
DescriptionThis difficult volume is about the far side of Christmas. We prefer to see only the tree and the tinsel, the mere exterior, and we forget, neglect, ignore the inner soul of religion. And religion can be the most dangerous thing of all... How is this a schizophrenic spin on the Yuletide trivialities? Here is a querulous book that does not witness Christmas and all Christianity through the gaze of respectability, but through the poisoned eyes of the doomed homeless outsider. Some of the verse- which aspires to be as dubious and questionable as possible- was actually done on a psychiatric ward. Christmas and the Faith become emblems of that conventionality which may be so choking for...
Meeting Mister Mephistopheles
DescriptionThis is a play about the entry into Hell, about the agony that has no relief, about the distress that cannot be soothed, about the pain that will never be cured... It is set in the aloofness of a Cambridge college, during the turbulence of the 1960's... A new undergraduate, Ayub Peters, finds that he is going all too rapidly mad in the environment of cold Cambridge snobbery. Demons are everywhere, damnation emerges in each encounter, and his strange and shadowy college tutor, Mister Mephistopheles, orchestrates the student's descent into psychosis and suicide... But perhaps Cambridge actually is a nest of devils, and, through his so- called 'schizophrenia', Ayub Peters is discover...
Being Superficial in Soho
This is a play about Soho, about its mixture of delight and danger. It revolves around a woman working for a London fashion firm. She enters a state of depression. She becomes attracted to alcohol, she grows unstable, she is unable to easily adapt to her job and the city. Her own background is the conservative countryside. There is nothing nice and cushy about her harassed mental condition. Enter the realm of uncertainty! Money and sex become unpredictable entrapments. She feels as if she is in a pit from which she cannot escape. Depression... it destroys all that is secure and serene. Depression...it is the misery of loneliness and self- destruction. Depression...this is the fate of Jane Tomkin- Tomkin...
219 Darwin Year
DescriptionThey are hunting me....I am a non- man...My desperate heart is beating savagely in my ears...I am hurt, I am afraid, I am a fugitive...They want to seize me, and to negate me- to castrate and lobotomize me....For I am not genetically pure, and therefore I do not have the right to exist...Their state has made eugenics the centre, the core, of everything...And the police possess no pity...About the AuthorZekria Ibrahimi (born in 1959) is defined by his schizophrenia. It first hit him long ago, in his late teens. He is fifty one years old now, grey and frail, almost a pensioner, with all the aches and injuries of age, and he does not always want to remember how, as an adolescent in t...
