The poems explore entanglement and betrayal, and their recurring phrases build a private mythology. Rather than hiding cracks, they show them, like the art of kintsugi. They are traps set for what is fleeting and invisible: wonder, trauma, loss and language itself, in a space at once local and limitless, from the Hunter's Moon to dawn with a hangover in Warsaw's Żoliborz. The speaker guides the reader through circles of inherited trauma and social injustice.
