'Check Mates' is an original collection of fiction and poetry written
about Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder by the people who know best -
Obsessive-Compulsives. Split between `realism' and stories of the
`beyond', there is a diverse range of styles and genres, and a mix of
rage, frustration, tears, violence, pain, heartache, subversion, love,
strength, metaphysics, philosophy, friendship, hope, and even a bit of
humour.
And maybe - just maybe - it will knock away a few
stereotypes.
