How to read Simboska's poems?

Reading Simboska's poems really requires a very quiet mind and a very active thinking, and it depends on watching movies. If you buy All is Silence as a mystery, I suggest you read The Absurdity and the Possibility of Laughter written by The Last Translator (a guide by Simboska), and then look at Simboska's Nobel Prize-winning speech in Stockholm (which I also like very much).

Personal understanding

My love for poetry almost began with Simposka. I'm not a poet, but I'm only fascinated by Simboska.

If you find it difficult to understand, it may or may not be the translation, but it is this "poetic language" that allows you to explore the deep meaning in detail, which is very interesting.

Poland is a country with a very long and developed film industry, which happens to be a country where poets come forth in large numbers. After 1930s, there appeared different film schools in Polish film industry: the first one tended to the left-wing parties such as the Liberal Party or communist party, and dared to pursue in art and boldly reflected social problems. Simboska's poetry works at that time were also quite picturesque, presenting one scene after another like a movie, caring about politics but not interfering in politics.

If you want to know more about Simboska, you can look at her "Ask yourself and answer yourself" and so on.
