Opis

When a poet finds her old notebooks, filled with verses which she authored 20 years ago, it can lead to feelings of self-mockery since what she once wrote seems childish and naive to her now. On the other hand, the lyricism of youth and expressions of romance, bitterness, and disenchantment of the young at heart are dearly missed by the more mature, or shall we say aged, writer. The book "Love Meter" introduces us to Elena Sosnina's "rosy" period, where the classic style of an even and harmonious metering system is evident. She combined those early love poems with the urbanistic ones from later years, for contrast. It's quiet a shock to see these roses sprouted their thorns - meters become irregular, rhymes appear sparser, and the content becomes more prose-like. But as author mentions in the foreword, the one thing which stays constant throughout the whole book - love lives in between the lines.
