About this book

A poignant exploration of love, loss, and identity in contemporary New Zealand.

In Saga, Hannah Mettner delves into the complexities of modern life, from family secrets and personal histories to social commentary and riot grrrls. These poems navigate love, sexuality, and friendship with an uneasy grace, revealing the tough heart that beats beneath the skin. Visit childhood playgrounds in storms, encounter women painted on church walls, and explore the fjords and hidden corners of Mettner's world.

With wild blackberry and everyday magic, Saga invites you to reflect on the past, embrace the present, and find connection in a world where the permafrost is always melting. Perfect for readers of contemporary poetry, feminist literature, and anyone seeking a fresh perspective on the human experience.
