Reliquary of the Rabbit-Hearted is one writer's reflection on the mind in the face of family and generational traumas. It uses a variety of lenses to approach the core concepts of disability, fatness, abuse, and the loss of a paternal figure. It further examines the reclamation of personal power-a constant undoing and reconstructing of self, love, and lineage. Reliquary of the Rabbit-Hearted is a collection of tremendous grief and tremendous power. In poems that are sharp, bodily, and unflinching, we see Rabbit Girl mourn the collapse of her family and rebuild and rebaptize herself into a new name, a new sense of self. Saga Savage's language is the work of spells, both the grit and the magic of it. From the first page, I knew I would follow Rabbit Girl through the woods, into the dark of moldering homes, and eventually, back out into the light.
- Roseanna Alice Boswell, author of Hiding in a Thimble Saga Savage's Reliquary of the Rabbit-Hearted is a masterpiece of bending and of becoming. The poems are cutting and boldly embracing what it means to navigate the uncertain. Whether it be the body, that glorious meat carnival, masks the narrator wears, crumbling, or longing to understand the whys without becoming them. This collection reminds us of the distance between the wild feminine and evidence of its destruction. It will simultaneously sharpen your teeth and soften your heart.
