Synopsis

"From a certain point onward there is no longer any turning back. That is the point that must be reached."

"A book should serve as the ax for the frozen sea within us."

These are quotes from Franz Kafka, who is the most important poet for the author of this book.

In this collection, the author tries to reach that point, to approach the line. Nobody knows where this point is and at what moment there is no turning back.

The collection mostly includes poems of the last ten years or so which, in metaphorical forms approach above mentioned point.

Some of the texts are prose poems that open new possibilities of language and metaphor.
