Edytta Wojnar's poems throb with surprises. We find here evanescentdesires, personal and communal losses, and heart-felt melancholia for theleft-behind country and native tongue. But there is also sheer playfulnessof language (or rather languages as Wojnar occasionally interweaves herlyrics with her native Polish words), which does not describe but acts andreenacts. These poems "walk on their eyelashes" and they "click clack." InWojnar's landscapes we walk among "snowflakes as fireflies," and womenare "fog carved in cedar." Her poems hum the melodies of magic andmysteries. Curses turn into prayers. "Foreign sounds on linked strands rollinto the inked lines." These poems are both profound and sheer delights.
