Description
The collection by Tomáš Míka Klein presents subdued, introspective verses in which the author captures the world in its quiet decline and fleeting beauty with exceptional fragility and existential urgency. The poems navigate the border between personal myth and commonly shared melancholy. Míka masterfully utilizes the economy of expression, the silence between words and images to speak about loss, solitude, and death — but also about the desire to remain alive despite everything. The Shine of Soot is not a comforting collection, but a truthful one: it bears witness to the fragility of a person who seeks meaning in emptiness and the last remnants of light within.
