‘Pills for the First Consultation’ is the first of the Pills for the Hospital Ward series. A defining feature of this anthology is restless verse primed to divert sluggish thoughts away from pending medical appointments to refocus on the fabric of society. The hospital series features plays punctuated with original artwork, plays and poems by the author. While distracting patients is a theme throughout the series, each book may be read independently and in any order.
To express devotion to public concerns, various office holders have donated their images for public appraisal. This philanthropic gesture will no doubt be appreciated by convalescing readers. Hospital inmates may discover solace by respecting the tremendous burden of social responsibility these brave public representatives deal with routinely. Resolving the illness in society can be a cathartic process simultaneously recovering both the patient and society.
The opening play is a tribute to the venerable leader, Kim Jong Un during a triumphant tour of a North Korean psychiatric ward. Admiration is also reserved for western figure heads, politicians, gurus and businessmen. Plays, poems and fables are richly enhanced with candid images of upright characters from eugenics proponents to tabloid proprietors. Paintings by the author offer an interlude from the relentless tributes made to prominent administrators. In particular, an interned patient may relate to the fable ‘Bureaucratic Short Fuse’ for the accolade it pays to the fascinating maze of bureaucracy invariably thrust upon a patient when confronted with wads of unsigned documents published in small print legalise.
Also in the hospital series:
Book One - Pills for the First Consultation
Book Two - Pills for the First Night
Book Three - Pills for the First Day
Book Four - Pills for Visiting Hours
Book Five - Pills for the Homeward Bound
Due to popular demand, the series has been compiled into one book called Sweet Pills for the Hospital Ward.
