Recenzii
Intense music rises from the very heart of his poetry, expanding the allure of compressed beauties.
Shems's language.unites Eastern and Western Armenian both in terms of its form and of its usage. His pan-Armenian mode of thought is a phenomenon rather rare in our times.
Shems's writing is the poetry of pure spirit, the murmur of a restless soul. It is a cry of protest and rebellion, a quest for beauty and a dream, expressed in a powerful voice.. The best way to portray Shems is to think of the magnificent ruins of Armenian churches. He was an expatriate, a lone émigré in search of Mt. Ararat and its shade, a man seeking the heart in others, a dreamer who longed to create the song of the heart.. a dervish aspiring to be an artist, an artist living the life of a dervish.
