Fresco: Selected Poetry of Luljeta Lleshanaku

Meer over het boek

Luljeta Lleshanaku's poetry is shaped by her experiences growing up in Albania under a repressive regime, where her family's opposition led to restrictions on her education and creative expression. Emerging as a significant voice after the fall of communism, she reinvents Albanian poetry, moving away from enforced socialist realism. Her work features a distinctive style characterized by a firm yet quiet voice and haunting imagery, reflecting both personal and national histories, and challenges readers to engage deeply with the past.
