Crumbles Of The Seventeen

‘Crumbles of the Seventeen’ is a whirlwind of insecurity and rebellion, between elegance and chaos. Blending diary entries, dialogue and lyrical prose, narrator Sage tells us her ongoing story of friendship and self-discovery. Her obsession on writing, to prove her depth to a dismissive teacher, takes her to deeply question herself and her surroundings. Through schoolyard conversations, midnight thoughts and melancholic spring fever, she tries to make sense of her own voice. She has a kind, understanding voice, which leads her to decide who to hold onto and who to distance herself from. “Poetic, raw and honest. Anyone who likes profound, reflective literature will find themselves in these texts.” – anonymous
