Leeds Survivor Poets had been called “the most active writing group in West Yorkshire.” And the World Really Had Changed is a collection of 99 poems written by the group created to help members recover from ‘mental health system involvement.’ The collection confronts the pain and stigma of their pasts, but mainly dwells on joy, irony, and “belly laughs.” It is their first publication as a group, and it features poems from as early as 1973.
