Ritual, Interrupted is a poetic grimoire that looks to imagined worlds for self-discovery. Drawing on experiences with invisible illnesses like depressive disorder and anxiety, David Ly blurs the line between the real and the surreal, inviting readers into poems where the coping rituals of daily life are disrupted by mental health crises. A product of lived experience, Ritual, Interrupted reveals how vulnerability and imagination are radical acts of resistance that are necessary in a compassionate life and ultimately, for human survival.
