About This Book

Kokoelma tarjoaa lyhyitä, tiiviitä runoja, joissa arkiset ja mytologiset kuvat sekoittuvat voimakkaiksi mielikuvakertomuksiksi: vangin ponnisteluista ja kaleeriorjan kidutuksesta siirrytään junaan, häkkiin, karuselliin ja merimatkaan. Toistuvina teemoina ovat ruumiillinen kärsimys, vapauden kaipuu, yön ja kuoleman uhka sekä unenomaiset näyt ja painajaiset. Tekstit vaihtelevat raaoista, liikkuvista kohtauksista hellämpiä, luovuutta ja lapsenmielisyyttä koskeviin pohdintoihin, ja kokonaisuus rakentuu kaleidoskooppiseksi sarjaksi voimakkaita, usein symbolisia visioita.
