First, I Turn off the Light by Katy Mack

Katy Mack's First, I Turn Off the Light is as unsettling and disarming as it is compassionate and brave. Mack's poems are an exploration of illness and mental health, and in doing so are lyrical, imaginative, full of humour and insight. These words are not weighed down by a desire to define illness and mental health, but instead celebrate the human experience that is so often at the heart of both.This is a rare and essential debut.
