Andrew Sant Knihy

The poet's innovative vision reveals profound insights into his subjects, showcasing a unique ability to uncover hidden meanings. His work reflects a natural connection to the themes he explores, akin to the effortless growth of leaves on trees. This innate talent positions him as an important figure in contemporary poetry, distinguished by his penetrating perspective.

He is a writer who doesn't want to write, a traveller who ignores the lessons of a serious earthquake, an urbanite who sees the justly vilified activity of smoking as a solution to social atomisation. Andrew Sant's new essays are those of a contrarian with a darkly amused view about the limits of human ingenuity and, as a consequence, humanity's eventual extinction. This is a various, oblique, upbeat collection -- sixteen essays as informative as they are entertaining.
