Ruins of the Heart

Více o knize

Lyrical mysticism characterizes Kristjana Gunnars' poetry, drawing readers in with its stunning beauty. Beyond mere aesthetics, her work explores profound themes such as aging and colonialism, reflecting a restless engagement with the world. Influenced by Dante's insights on broken vows, the poems convey a sense of incompleteness, echoing the universal longing for connection. Ultimately, they suggest that, like the poet, we may face our mortality with a song in our hearts, yearning for fleeting love.
