To some questions, reality holds no answers. We're all in the same boat on our escape from the pandemic, and all of us dread falling back into the isolation that awaits overboard. Join Przemek Ornicz as he attempts to gather the pieces of us we have left behind: dried last-year breaths now sitting still on ATM screens, unresolved issues locked away in closets, the never-quite-undone wait for things that haven't happened. hydrophobic mattersis a deeply personal poetry collection about finding clarity by transfiguring the immediate reality. The surprising ways in which it weaves its stories will defy your notions of contemporary poetry, confront your outlook on everyday life, and call into question the true nature of the things that surround you. Submerge yourself in a world where complex themes become sized down to ordinary motifs, and vice versa. Brimming with clever observations, hard-hitting with ingenious punchlines, it's a challenging but equally rewarding read - one can't cross a sea without getting wet, as some say. So dive in, settle at the bottom, and take a deep breath.
