"""Bronislava Volkova traipses her diverse poetic creations from place to place, from tongue to tongue, to survive. She is a magician of change. She pours sound and meaning between lake and mountain, and they rebound like chanting on a star. Hear the lyrical narration. Hear the profound emotion encased in the experience of the elegant survivor. Her words echo with wisdom and grace, her images stun through a photographer's sharp lens, and the poetic song never ceases.""- Willis Barnstone, Author of Stickball on 88th Street ""Verses of Bronislava Volkováaacute; are a universe of the soul. They are formable, creating a space where brevity and eternity coexist with metaphysics and a most realistic, genuine, and fully lived life. In order to write like this, a special gift is needed. The poet herself has to become a work of art. If we open, for example, a volume of Walt Whitman and then we turn right away to Bronislava Volková's verses, we will under-stand what contemporary poetry is. An extreme laconism and concentration of life. And at the same time an understatement. A density of speech, with air between the lines."" --Aleksandr Karpenko - Author of Wind of Wounds"
