The collection Fragment (rytierskeho) lesa / A Fragment of a (Knight’s) Forest comprises poems that are part memoir, part reflection and analysis, and explore the possibility of inner renewal and human freedom in various contexts. The passages of memoir sketch out the problematic relationship between the past and the present, decay and birth, life and death, Eros and Thanatos. Štrpka reflects on the extent to which people today are prepared for full, uncalculating participation in the world around them, as well as in their own existence. The book features typical Štrpka tropes: puppets, messengers, knights, a mirror, a lamp, copies, empty hands, or running. In this book, as in his previous ones, the author is not afraid of posing the most fundamental, yet most complex questions of human existence: “Something is pounding THROBBING? here. Where am I? Whose wandering has just been cut short?”
