Summary
Emina Elezović: Heart neglected as a small child
Fields of sunflowers, security of personal space, elephants that are not talked about, the history of searchers and jars of jam that no one eats - the collection of poems "Heart neglected as a small child" is filled with sadness and beauty that can be read from everyday rituals. From the very first page of this book, the reader is invited into a lyrical world in which the personal and intimate intertwine with the general and universal, a world that almost always sways gently somewhere between consolation and melancholy. Emina Elezović's poetry does not shy away from tenderness and linguistic conciseness, it strives with all its might for the bareness and disclosure that precedes the understanding of oneself and everything around one. A world that is no stranger to cruelty needs poetry that bears witness to the beauty that, despite everything, inhabits places of sadness.
