    "Chad Curtis Rose's Undertow is to the memoir what Ginsberg's Howl was to poetry or Munch's The Scream to painting - a seismic blast announcing the
    arrival of a talented, complex, angst-driven artist. Revealing a life where pain and passion often go hand-in-hand, where the struggle to go on is not
    measured in days, but in minutes, Undertow is a must read for anyone who has struggled with mental illness and addiction, or knows someone close
    dealing with these difficult issues. Unrelentingly honest, at times laugh out loud funny, vulnerable, inspiring and sprinkled with wisdom about
    the road less taken, Undertow is a riveting reading journey you will never forget." John McCaffrey, The Book of Ash (Boxfire Press)

    It was while incarcerated that I began writing Undertow, penning page after page on legal notebooks, working in an isolated cell that mirrored the prison Bipolar Disorder had forged in my mind. Facing the slow tick of time, I set out to share my story in the hope that it will shed new light on the human toll of mental illness while helping others who are suffering with similar issues seek professional help.

    UNDERTOW also chronicles a childhood filled with abuse, both physical and emotional, and how these difficult early years led to my issues with addiction. However, the book has many light moments, following my travels across the country, where I met and befriended a host of wild characters and fell in and out of love with women with unique stories...    less

One of my most recent poems was published in the Foliate Oaks literary magazine of February 2013, titled "Sentenced Tourist ", a piece written during my 16-month incarceration and also one of the many works interspersed into the narrative of the book.

    Although my book was written over the course of a two-year period, my writer's mind has been working on the manuscript for well over a decade. Much of my life with bipolar has primed me to be knowledgeable in the realms of mental illness, I was an advocate and liaison for many inmates diagnosed with bipolar disorder in jail and have continued to speak in groups, giving presentations on the crucial importance of awareness, education and the proactivity of such illnesses.  less
