Ruins of the Heart

Más información sobre el libro

Lyrical mysticism characterizes Kristjana Gunnars' poetry, drawing readers in with its stunning beauty. Beyond mere aesthetics, her work explores profound themes such as aging and colonialism, reflecting a restless engagement with the world. Influenced by Dante's insights on broken vows, the poems convey a sense of incompleteness, echoing the universal longing for connection. Ultimately, they suggest that, like the poet, we may face our mortality with a song in our hearts, yearning for fleeting love.
