POEMS OF DEPARTURE. Verses of Invisible Inner European Exile and Resistance (eBook, poetry) by Taja Kramberger
What are the reasons for leaving one place and moving to another? When does a person decide to do this, when do we realize that our future within the borders of a single country is completely ruined, dead? What is worth saving? How does one cope with the sudden realization that they have spent decades in a society built on lies and horrors, and have even dedicated their best efforts and achievements to it? In this book, Taja Kramberger describes her reasons for leaving Slovenia (in 2012 exile and permanently in 2016) through a series of powerful poems. The book includes a short poetic essay on the key difference and incompatibility between true democracy and camouflaged democracy written in March 2022, during the war in Ukraine (and the poet already living in France), when the methods and hidden intentions of the latter were widely exposed.
