Meditating on the beauty of an ordinary life, Sanna Wani's second poetry collection, Lantern, explores how we fall in love and make a home. What does it mean to belong to a city, or to truly enter adulthood? Imbued with a quiet queerness, this book is a guide for living in the aftermath of familial rifts, crises of faith, political struggle, and intergenerational grief-all while remaining devoted to an idea of goodness.
Sanna Wani is a Kashmiri writer, editor, and translator based in Toronto. Her debut collection, My Grief, the Sun, won the 2023 Trillium Award for Poetry. Her writing has been widely published, including in Best Canadian Poetry, Brick, Hazlitt, and Poem-A-Day. She is the creator and host of the podcast, Poet Talk; Poetry Editor at The Ex-Puritan; and Publicity Manager at Between the Lines.
