This is an automatically translated description
Poems at the turn of the century often lose their autonomy and increasingly resemble diaries. What can be found in Serhiy Zhadan's new poetic diary? 50 and 1 poems written before and after the big bang, brought together, united by a sense of language that disappears so painfully, but then necessarily returns. Strung on a thread of voice, dependent on sound, they, these poems, remain a private, torn chronicle of the last two years - filled with snow, singing, spelling, love.
