Absurd Nobility / , by Anna Keiko (Independently Poetry, Ziti Collection, 2022). Translated in English by Iuliana Pasca and Germain Droogenbroodt. "In Anna Keiko's poems, nature becomes a metaphor for life as a whole. Winds become fluidity. Bacteria, symbols of resistance. Strength becomes light. Depression, an organ. The biosphere becomes the rite of our organism. The body itself [...] Poems, in short, that evidence the freshness and innovation that today's critics exalt so much about Anna Keiko. Peculiarity imprinted in the pertinence of a poetry that, as Theodor Adorno said, assumes its fiercest critical constitution by being a lucid reflection of a reality told in its smallest detail and plagued with passion." Dr. Nicolás Panotto AnnaAnna· Author: Anna Keiko (China) Poet, writer, once studied law at the School of Political Science and Law, Shanghai East China University, permanently living in Shanghai, China.
