In Edge of the Wind, a 25 year-old black man is off his meds and has begun hearing voices. For months, he has done nothing but read and write poetry. One day, he is convinced writing poetry is his calling. Life takes a terrible turn when the college he reaches out to rejects him and his work. He takes matters into his own hands and holds the literature class hostage. James Cherry holds nothing back as he tackles mental illness and the importance of relationships in this debut novel.
