    Murmurs of the Mad

    Written by Michael Eckel

    Narrated by Michael Eckel

    About this audiobook

    Turned on its head, reality’s madness becomes a comical carnival of the ridiculous with intervals of creative, contemplative verse.

    Within this collection of short stories and poems are the musings, struggles and cynicisms of those who see the political puppetry, the diminishing resources, the infinite greed, overconsumption, and violence that exists beneath the accepted patina of contemporary society. Through the power of spoken word, atmospheric soundscapes and musical melodies, these revelations represent the wilful recognition of truth and the rejection of falsity; they are the Murmurs of the Mad.
