A Circle in the Sand (1997)

Opus, Books - Riccardo Staraj

Krug u pijesku

This collection is just an attempt to introduce, at least for a moment, the illusions of order into our obscure living, and a tiny incentive in order to continue seeking for the satisfaction in writing, no matter how much power still lacks in our verses. It is about the joy of common creation and the belief that we shall succeed.

The poetic sensibility is what the poems in the collection have in common. I don’t think that there are any perceptional differences between us and our surroundings, in the experience of these thickened and hard times...but what is certainly a trait which we possess are our responses to frequent and everyday questions. Happy is the advantage of poetry which can talk about the painful and the ugly in its own noble manner, as well as lifting up and bringing closer all the good and the beautiful.
