Mr Bumble’s Thought Emporium: PODCAST

It’s easy to think of a person with mental health issues as never having been ‘normal’; merely a sad part of the scenery – and therefore accepted, or worse: stepped over and ignored.

This dramatised reading is designed to provide a wake-up call to the very real issues relating to mental illness and the traumatic effect it has on families. It is told from the point-of-view of a kid brother who, at first, shies away from sharing the support of his ailing sister, then eventually takes on the ultimate responsibility.

‘Mr Bumble’s Thought Emporium’, although a story in its own right, is adapted from a chapter taken from Martin Ison’s novel: ‘How I Set Fire To My Eyebrows’ (available on Amazon – just search Martin Ison there), and has been used as required reading on a University course in Forensic Psychology, giving background to the very real issues relating to mental health today.
