Narrative Poems II

Více o knize

Set against the backdrop of post-war Czechoslovakia, this collection features narrative poems crafted during a tumultuous period marked by totalitarian rule. Written in a state of "delirious seclusion," the poet found inspiration in a historic house on the island of Kampa in Prague. The work reflects the emotional and psychological turmoil of its time, showcasing Holan's unique voice and perspective as he navigates themes of oppression, isolation, and resilience through his poignant verses.
