Summary:
"In Myself A Paperclip, Finlay sketches the internal self and the external whir of the psychiatric ward, laying bare its daily rhythms. Memories, musings, echoes, and meditations on stigma coalesce: quarters dispensed into a payphone to listen to the stunned silence of a partner; Splenda packets and rice pudding hoarded in dresser drawers; counting back from ten as electrodes connect with the temple. Deeply personal and reflective, Myself A Paperclip confronts abuse and experiences with debilitating
mental
illnesses, therapies, and hospitalizations, all shaped into the remarkable form of a serial long poem."--Publisher.
