Love At First Sight de Wislawa Szymborska

Love At First Sight

Autor Wislawa Szymborska Ilustrat de Beatrice Gasca Queirazza Traducere de Clare Cavanagh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 oct 2022
Love at First Sight is a beautiful poem about love and chance and destiny by the 1996 Polish winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature. Illustrated by Italian artist Beatrice Gasca Queirazza, Szymborska's poem comes to life in entirely new ways for her readers and for lovers everywhere in this oversized book perfect for gift giving. Szymborska tells of two young lovers bound together in an instant - or were they? As the poem unfolds, the reader's assumptions - like those of the lovers themselves - about certainty and destiny are utterly upended, revealing the paradox and mystery of fate. Here is randomness, tricks of memory, and chance, where noticing the smallest details of our intertwined lives is more essential than asking, Are we meant for each other? 'Every beginning / is only a sequel, after all...'
