3VOLVE is a photo-poetic prospectus suggesting Man's responsibility to shape social evolution away from the habits of the Information Age, to better communicate, to touch and be touched. Introduced by a visit to the French Embassy of New York after years lived in Paris, fast-forwarded to relocation in Reims, France - setting the backdrop for Metzger's first exposure as a contemporary poet in-love, through a whirlwind of contemplation to sudden life change, paused by a spirit altering road trip across Ireland, twice, and ending with a graceful bow of gratitude in Paris. 3VOLVE displays Metzger's ability to dig profoundly into social, political and existentialist philosophies, to question and adjust readers' perspective by providing alternative viewpoints. Sensitively reading human emotion while highly conscious of her environment, Metzger prolongs moments, inhales existence, then writes in deep, steady exhales which are meditative, sensual and intim

A volume of Love, for Lovers. In the spirit of Saint Valentine's Day and dedicated to the author's mother and father on the event of their 50th wedding anniversary, ' agάpe [simply love] ' promises to be a unique edition, fully revealing Metzger's profound romantic side woven throughout and extracted from her six books to date. Often transcribed directly from the eyes and experience of who many have called a romantic existentialist, Metzger's contemporary perspective is often infused with the sentiment of the troubadour, reflecting that of Chaucer's 14th-Century shift of the religious holiday to a day for romance and courtly love. Comprised of her more positive, hopeful and courtly poems, ' agάpe [simply love] ' exhibits Metzger's fervent belief in, and infallible hope for, the preservation of romantic love in society, spanning 15 years of traveling, observing, and living among different cultures.

In the winter of 2012-13 and shortly after receiving her French residency, Metzger left a life she cultivated in Europe and many dreams behind. OUT TUO follows a five-year journey to recover those dreams, if not see them in a new light and from an altered, coming-of-age perspective. Now characteristic of the author, her Sixth Book of Poetry and Writings leans on existentialist thought to stress the idea of how, in fact, ?The only way out is through?, and while living in a land much more foreign than the America and Western Europe she left behind ? America, ten years later.
