Om Manic-depressive Pixie Dream Girl

What does 'crazy' really mean? Manic-depressive Pixie Dream Girl is an off-beat collection of stories, essays, and poems inspired by the author's own journeys in and out of love, sanity, and everything in between. This book takes the trope of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl-quirky-yet-troubled love interest of countless Sad Boy protagonists-and turns it inside out, breathing life into a formerly tired and empty plot device. The result is a harsh examination of media representation's effects on the way society handles mental illness and gender-based violence. With equal parts humor, sincerity, and blistering social commentary, this book will change your perspective on womanhood, the American mental health system, and, ultimately, what it means to be well-adjusted to a sick society.
