Taking inspiration from Al Jaffees illustrated fold-ins in MAD magazine, Tysdal explores living with mental illness through a new kind of poetry: the fold-in poem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this innovative collection, each poem does not end at the bottom of the page; instead, the reader is invited to complete the poem by folding the page to reveal the final line. From the effects of being \"smiled into an elephantine line\" at Pearson International Airport to the rites of official memory and forgetting at a baseball game in the aftermath of tragedy, Tysdal probes both his own psyche and the myriad environments that work to enfold those who are deemed mad.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 228 x 177 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781773102719\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Daniel Scott Tysdal","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44513620984058,"sku":"9781773102719","price":12.68,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1692368885801_book.jpg?v=1692796358","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-end-is-in-the-middle-mad-foldin-poems-9781773102719","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
