x "To write incorporeal poems, almost without words. To approximate the impossible where the art disappears and the Word becomes.
I find it difficult to write poems. It’s as if I entered where the air is more rarefied, where it’s more and more difficult to breathe."
— Anna Kamieńska, from The Notebook (1973), in Astonishments, translated by G. Drabik and D. Curzon
