poetry publications

This new volume Flying Between Words published by the Contemporary Writers of Poland is a unique anthology, a collection of poems, short stories and memoirs, dedicated to aviation. The book presents the work of international authors. The writers try to go beyond the stratosphere, to look through the eyes of poetry – as pilots, as navigators. They approach alien planets that may evoke our fears but may also allow us to question the mundane and trigger existential reflection. They go into a state of poetic weightlessness, which becomes a unique creative challenge. Many works in the collection refer to Poland’s dramatic history, where aviators played an important and heroic role. Anna Maria Mickiewicz London 2015
