Goosebumps

COVER-NEVA.jpg

Publisher: Fraktura, Zagreb, 2020.

Although starting from the skin – or, maybe, because their final reflection is just seen on it – goosebumps descend into the depths of the body from where they ascend to the surface. The cycles in the new collection by Neva Lukić draw concentric circles of waves which sweep over us when meeting others, when confronted by our defective body, by the moon, truth, art, the sting of others’ and our own words…

First edition: Hrvatsko društvo pisaca, 2015

Second edition: Elektroničke knjige, 2021.

The collection Shadows of Seeds by Neva Lukić is a conceptually thought out and refined book which attracts with its reduced style, its linguistic material, its whiteness and pauses, its rich metaphors, its impressive, phantasmagorical images, its impressive sense of visual, but also with its thematic and linguistic, and with its pre-linguistic and post-linguistic level.

The Dress Obscura

Edition: Matica hrvatska, Karlovac, 2011.

​

A poetry collection by a Croatian author, the manuscript awarded with the prize for young poets "Zdravko Pucak" in 2010, by the Karlovac Croatian Matrix and the town of Karlovac. A specific rational discourse and a kind of intellectual distance from the described image, theme or motif outline the lyrical context of Neva Lukić.
