"There is a genuine search for something - much of the time it turns out to be distraction."

Published by Lolli Editions (more info here!), the poems were translated by Max Minden Ribeiro (Pelle Hvenegaard’s Dear Zoe Ukhona and Finn Juhl: Life, Work, World by Christian Bundegaarand) and Sam Riviere (81 Austerities, Kim Kardashian's Marriage)
