De poëzie van Laura Broadbent duikt in de gladheid van taal en de vergankelijkheid van verlangen, en biedt een experimentele verkenning die gendertypen afbreekt. Haar werk herdefinieert relaties, liefde en romantisch verlangen, en portretteert deze als tegelijkertijd essentieel, absurd, willekeurig, afschuwelijk en blind. Door een veelzijdige en hybride benadering van stem, biedt Broadbents schrijven een diepgaand onderzoek naar de menselijke ervaring en de zoektocht naar betekenis te midden van de onzekerheden van het leven.
Exploring the intricacies of language and expression, this collection features texts that play with the concept of voice, employing a hybrid approach that challenges traditional narrative forms. The stuttering quality of the writing invites readers to engage with the rhythm and texture of words, creating a unique reading experience that emphasizes the fluidity and versatility of communication. Through its innovative style, the book delves into themes of identity and the complexities of human expression.
