Mary Allen didn`t know Jim Beaman had a drug problem when she fell in love with him, but she could sense his demons. When he killed himself a year into their relationship, Allen was unable to let him go and turned to a Ouija board and automatic writing to try to enter the dark recesses of her mind where she hoped to find him. The Rooms of Heaven is her memoir of that period, when she travelled to the brink of insanity and back again. It is an unsentimental love story exploring the precarious space between passion and addiction, grief and madness. | The Rooms of Heaven by Mary Allen, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
