Anotace knihy

Sent into a remote First Nations community after the sudden departure of a burnt-out worker, Imogen is told the role is urgent. With no family responsibilities and a contract at stake, she says yes.

Determined to prove herself, she works relentlessly to rebuild what was left behind. But the community has seen this pattern before. As exhaustion sets in, First Nations women watch, wait, and quietly reveal another way of being - one grounded in relation rather than rescue.

Written in flowing, unpunctuated verse, Verses for Imogen offers a powerful reflection on burnout, institutional urgency, and the hidden cost of being indispensable. Through silence, pause, and presence, the story shifts from pressure to alignment, from performance to connection.

This reflective Australian verse novel offers insight into community development, cultural awareness, and sustainable ways of working in remote and cross-cultural settings.

More than a story, this book also serves as a practical resource, including discussion questions and facilitator guidance designed for group reflection, classrooms, and professional learning settings.

At once intimate and expansive, Verses for Imogen invites readers to reconsider how they work, how they relate, and what it means to stay without losing themselves.
