I Am Not Magritte: A Collection of Poetry (Wordcatcher Modern Poetry)
by Monika KosteraThis collection of poetry materialised in transit: between places and spaces. The poems reflect the sound and feel of these in-between moments, as the author experienced them while passing by. The poems do not form any definite shape: this collection is not a story, not a confession, and certainly not a travelogue. If anything, it springs from the unlikely meeting point between the contexts and the person rubbing against them. Some poems are written in Polish, the native tongue of the author.
