over under fed w/ Amy Marguerite: 14th March, 2025

over under fed is the debut poetry collection by Amy Marguerite, out now via Auckland University Press.

In over under fed, Amy explores the peculiar loveliness and specific loneliness of the human condition. She writes from experiences with anorexia nervosa, limerence and a particularly tumultuous situationship. Her poems are confessional and seek to reconcile chaos and recovery.

Amy completed Te Kohinga Auaha, a Master of Arts in Creative Writing at the International Institute of Modern Letters in Pōneke Wellington in 2022.

Beth caught up with Amy about over under fed and her creative process, and she performed a poem.
