Beskrivelse
Surprisingly sweet and gentle, this love story of a crime victim and a troubled man, an ex-offender, consists of 85 brief, lyrical poems and 24 narrative fragments. The book includes paraphrases of actual court records and allusions to the medieval tradition of courtly love. Inspired by The Songs of Songs, with its surreal mixture of the erotic and the spiritual, as well as by centuries of love poems, from Sappho to Milosz, this poetry collection is Maja Trochimczyk's fourth book, following a series of music studies (After Chopin: Essays in Polish Music, 2000; The Music of Louis Andriessen, 2002; and Polish Dance in Southern California, 2007). This edition features ten different poems, new illustrations, and a revised, happy ending.
