New York City’s spooky looking and pre-post-modernly-ironically named Bellevue Hospital has diversified into book publishing. Not worthy tomes about exotic mental illnesses, but novels and other books ‘about the human condition’.

Star Wards is planning a book project – Book Sanctuary, which we hope to run in partnership with the Arts Council. Perhaps we should think beyond books to read or look at and encourage hospitals to consider ones they create and publish? The energy and creativity of Star Wards’ members continually dazzles me so I wouldn’t be surprised if small hospital publishing houses start springin up all over the place.
That sounds like a really smart idea! And with the internet you coulsd publish online for minimal cost!
