The meaning of a catharsis is as varied as the people who experience it. For some, it's finally letting go of a burden that has plagued them. For others, it's opening their hearts to new possibilities. The tales in this anthology feature characters who undergo a catharsis in beautiful, raw, and breathtaking moments that define their sense of self and change the course of their lifetimes.

Poetry

​

These are the thoughts of a soldier who struggled to make it to a new day.

Matthew S. Conrad's goal was to become a "black hat" through his service in the U.S. Army 82nd Airborne Division. This dream was cut short by a devastating accident that resulted in him being honorably discharged from the Army, struggling with addiction, and enduring mental health issues.
