All Women in One

The poems are a delicate collection of imagery, juxtaposing light and darkness, longing and belonging, and evoking personal and collective memory. The book starts with the poem "I Smell You Everywhere," which establishes the tone for the whole book and emphasizes the hidden powers of womanhood that transcend mere physicality, capturing its ethereal quality. This power mainly consists of the feminine ability to connect not only to the other sex but to the world itself.

The sequence "Garden of Light" explores sacred places that serve for awakening. Light, stars, and new landscapes speak of the power of love and the eternal quest for understanding and connection. In this sequence, a sense of spirituality stands out.

The line, "You shall not stop until you find Venus", expresses the entire meaning of self-realization through the love of the other. Recognizing the other and devoting oneself to them does not negate individuality; rather, it empowers and allows it to flourish. These poems challenge established, outdated paradigms and guide us toward a new direction of discovering the value of being free from the shackles of prejudices, misguided beliefs, or remnants of the past that are followed through inertia, rather than by listening to the heart.

"Poetry and Women" brings together ancient traditions and the modern world, emphasizing the essence of femininity independent of the whims of history and time. The poet moves from the past to the present, showing that ancestral echoes affect and shape our contemporary endeavors, views, and behaviors. This connection between the past and the present throughout the collection creates a historical context within which we can easily identify our place and reflect on its meaning.

From the desolate beauty of "Love in Arizona" to the evocative imagery in "Rain," each poem is a unique call to experience the world. Strength and vulnerability have equal power in this poetry. The poet is exceptionally skillful in placing personal experiences and anecdotes within the universal frames applicable to almost everyone immersed in the questions of love and life in search of meaning.

In All Women in One, the language is both lyrical and accessible, yet it will inspire readers to explore the essence of love more deeply.
