Anna Frajlich, an outstanding poet, in her latest volume "Odrastamy od drzewa" touches on topics close to all of us. Her poems are not only a record of personal experiences, but also a universal message about the strength of the spirit and the need for empathy. The poet deals with extraordinary sensitivity with the fate of victims of violence, both those who are distant and unknown, and those remembered from her own experiences. She finds the repetition of fate in the recent escapes of the population of Lviv, which remind her of her own wanderings with repeated forced changes of place and the search for temporary accommodation or a permanent new home. It is poetry that encourages reflection and contemplation on the human condition.

A long life, filled with both personal experiences and a flood of information from all over the world, sums up - similarly to Szymborska - to an amazement at the abundance of existence, which must encompass one and the same self. This imbalance reveals the burden of responsibility for the world, with which the individual has been burdened beyond his strength, and which in itself is incoherent and incomprehensible, because it reveals numerous paradoxes. It is poetry that leaves no one indifferent, forces you to think and look for answers to difficult questions.

The volume "Odrastamy od drzewa" is a must-read for all poetry lovers who value the depth of the message and sensitivity to human suffering. It is a book that will stay with you long after reading, encouraging you to reflect and contemplate on the meaning of life and the value of empathy. Let Anna Frajlich's words become your guide in a difficult world and remind you of the strength that lies within each of us.
