\nCatalan: Tender Flower
\nShe doesn\u2019t realize how generous and fruitful she comes to this world of ruthless fire and deathly cold. Unprotected and soft survives, though.\nOn the decline her fruits are dry, but sweet as raisins.<\/p>\n
Illustration for poetry by the Catalan poet Merc\u00e8 Rodoreda, from the volume \"Flors de Deb\u00f2\" (\"True Flowers\"). Description and titles based on the translation by Barbara \u0141uczak.<\/p>\n
The writer, beloved by Catalans, was both a flower lover and a person with unbridled imagination and great emotional sensitivity. The flowers in her poetic prose are multidimensional characters, they take the reader into a completely wild and free gallop of associations. So there is a flower from the Forest of Broken Mirrors, a flower from the black of a thousand black ants, a fork fish, giggling bouquets that flow down rivers to the sea, flowers traveling on their bulbs like flocks of ducks, etc.<\/p>\n
Illustrations from the \"Fantastic Herbarium\" were exhibited at the Cervantes Institute in Krakow, at Planet 11 in Olsztyn and at the Stargard Cultural Center.<\/p>\n
