A collection of new and selected works from a prize-winning poet known to bear compassionate and ruthless witness to the quotidian.
Dorianne Lauxová se ve své poezii věnuje zkoumání lidských vztahů a každodenních zážitků s pronikavou upřímností. Její styl je přímý a zároveň lyrický, často se dotýká témat lásky, ztráty a hledání smyslu v obyčejných věcech. Lauxová umí zachytit křehkost lidské existence a zároveň v ní nalézt sílu a krásu. Její verše rezonují s čtenáři díky své autentičnosti a emocionální hloubce.
