And she learned that her brash and trashy family of women may have broken under the weight of invisible disability. A Grotesque Animal explores the making, unmaking, and making again of a woman with invisible and unknown disability-through a combination of personal storytelling and cultural analysis, through wide-ranging styles and mixed media. A battle cry that dissects anger, sexuality, autistic masking, bodies, punk, and female annihilation to create a new picture of modern women"--
"In the stories of Exile in Guyville, probable futures and alternate realities take aim at unruly women, and show how we refuse to be ruled. With a speculative and surreal style, Lillard's prize-winning collection explores a living museum of women from across time; a life app that forces women to comply with beauty standards; a future internment camp with a literal race for survival; and a former band of middle-aged Riot Grrrls, taking vengeance with a new power. With humor, rage, and a razor-sharp eye for detail, Exile in Guyville renders the invisible as seen, and the powerless as empowered"--
