The Reflection of Spring
Overview
A journey through psychiatric incarceration in a time of conflict: Joe is locked up, largely against his wishes, as were many people in Ireland whose families didn't want to have to care. Coercion was the daily diet as he looked into himself and wondered how he came to this place. In parts this is a story and in parts it is a study where the reader gets to decide who is right and who is wrong. To the uninitiated, this is a portrayal of an inner turmoil in a place of turmoil that will leave you wondering why these psychiatric institutions were allowed well beyond Dickensian times.
Cal Sanderson is a novelist, poet, playwright and musician with each pursuit under different pseudonyms. He has published three books of fiction (one a children's allegory of the Northern Irish peace process), a diary of a two hundred kilometer swimming journey along Ireland's coast and four books of poetry on top of which he has a few hundred poems yet to commit to books.
He has written three plays as a modern day homage to Dublin in the vein of O Casey's original portrayals. One of these plays was staged by Firedoor Theatre in Dublin. He has also released seventeen albums of contemporary music and song.
Meanwhile, he is a civil servant.
