In this collection of haiku and senryu, Elizabeth McMunn-Tetangco brings us into a distinct emotional and imagistic world shaped by weather, surgeries, and the painful strain of troubled relationships. Here we find heartbreak in ordinary materials: passwords, pizza crusts, moving boxes, a heating pad, an ice maker in summer. These poems avoid the stance common in haiku - gazing wondrously at nature. Instead, this accomplished poet's work feels lived rather than merely observed and composed.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDale Wisely\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecoeditor, \u003cem\u003efirst frost\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cuttlefish Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47969528021143,"sku":"9781970860962","price":691.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781970860962.webp?v=1782922212","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/salt-shaker-girls-9781970860962","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
