Dissection Day

Ally McGregor's debut collection of poetry, Dissection Day, uses pastel childhood metaphors to dissect the darkness of an adult life complicated by mental illness. Taking inspiration from both the traditional Surrealist trope of the "femme-enfant"-where women and mental illness are simultaneously romanticized and infantilized-as well as the contemporary art movement of Pop Surrealism, Dissection Day surreally blurs the dichotomies of cute and creepy, of sane and insane, and of life and death.
