Pamięć operacyjna

Ewa Lipska

Lipska is ofter referred to as „the last great poet of the twentieth century”. This is surely true – she debuted in the 1960s with the New Wave generation and has followed the stormy socio-political changes of the various decades with attention and disquiet. Yet it would be a mistake to suppose that the poet has nothing to say about our times. Both this volume and the one before it (The Palm Line Reader) prove once again that Lipska is peerless in her analyses of reality and her ability to look deep into language. “The world is headed for a breakdown. // The moon’s been cast into a river. / Nothing has happened yet. // We devour love. We spit out the seeds. / We gaze at the wreck of a cemetery. / More or less dead. But nothing more”, the poet writes in a recent work. A breakdown of the world that will spare no one. Let us read Lipska to get prepared.
