Unresponsive - Caitlin Press
"An emotional journey that is both raw and hopeful, illustrating the irony of the darkness that can lay underneath the light. Kelly's poetry puts a voice to the struggles we see daily and provides a narrative for the pain, loss and confusion of addiction that will challenge what, and how, you think".
David Kruyt, CEO, The Bloom Group Community Services Society.
"Unresponsive is a call to action, hopefully falling into the hands of people with the power, means and money to save lives, a compassionate cry to seek solutions together, and a catalyst for assistance with a vulnerable population. Brace yourself for emotional impact".
Jacquelyn Johnson, author of This Life I’ve Bled.

If I'd Known
"Kelly Madden's poetry is an elixir. If I'd Known is an intense and relatable work, delving into jagged emotions that result in an empowering state of healing. What I love about this author's writing is that it leaves one knowing none of us are alone."
Bill Arnott, Forever Cast in Endless Times,
Kelly Madden's poems are survivors. Out of heartbreak and loss, and the struggle with despair, they bring us the small moments, vividly portrayed, that make life worth living.
