František / Jorge Listopad: Pitfalls of memory in a poetic work

Publication at Faculty of Arts |
2023

Abstract

František Listopada's poetry is endowed with a meditative spirit, wit and depth, which the poet sometimes hides in the unresolved, in surprising seemingly improvised twists or connections, promising, spontaneous steps aside. He doesn't go anywhere, he lets himself be guided by an idea.

There is an awareness of the fragmentary nature of the world, the fragmentary nature of phenomena and moments. Through details and moments, it gets closer to the essence.
