Grandma & I
Wandering with Alzheimers
September 2021
Check out the upcoming work by Madeline Boss, soon to be released to readers! "Grandma & I: Wandering with Alzheimers" is a moving, poetic story about the author's grandmother who was diagnosed with Alzheimers early in life. The story takes the reader on a wandering path, through the mind of a woman with Alzheimers, and the experiences and hardships that loved ones also endure when dealing with the terrible disease.
Madeline Boss crafts her story in a unique prose style, alternating from perspectives of her Grandmother, Jan, her Grandfather, Jim, as well as herself. The prose novel is told through several personal journals from her grandmother over the years, individual letters, as well as short poems and narration from Madeline. Alzheimers is a challenge many people must face, whether directly impacted as an individual with the illness, or indirectly impacted as a family member who must accept losing their loved one, long before they are physically gone. "Wandering with Alzheimers" shares an uncertain yet unequivocal path. Things are confusing, but one thing is for sure, they will forget.
Sundered
In this unique compilation of poetry and prose, the modern-day love story of an incarcerated man and his girlfriend is relayed through six parts which explore millennial crime, corruption of the prison system, and the difficulties faced by a couple as they try to maintain their relationship while one of them is behind bars.Meant to bring awareness to the pain and hardships endured by inmates and their loved ones, as well as lend support to those in similar situations, Sundered takes a political stance on racial injustice in our legal system. It aims to change the way society sees, reacts and punishes those labeled as criminals―most of whom are victims of an oppressed criminal justice system.
