A collection of haiku by Elizabeth McMunn-Tetangco.

Salt Shaker Girls carries substantial emotional weight by reminding us of the realities of illness, aging, and marital strain, none explicitly announced. 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.
