The Surreal Confessional Anthology is a blending of the century-old surrealist and mid-century confessional form. The former was created and predominantly inhabited by white, males of privilege who sought to embody the language and rules of dreams and/or childhood. This means that their poems often had a playful quality and that the consequences and stakes of the poem were a bit more topsy than those of realism. The latter movement, the confessional, was chiefly inhabited by women often referred to as hysterical, melodramatic, and/or quaint by men resembling the founding members of surrealism. The blend of the two is an emerging literary movement, a space for marginalized bodies who inhabit the intersections to escape their own forms and embody the intersections of metaphor to better articulate their admissions-confessions, if you will-exasperations, and boundless joy. The surreal confessional is an often playful yet dark rumination on humanity by employing the inhuman, the animal, and the inanimate.
