Anđeo bola: Pjesme

Anđeo bola: Pjesme

Silvije Strahimir Kranjčević

Although the title of the collection is taken from the poem of the same name, this anthology includes a wider selection of Kranjčević's poems that reflect his depth of thought, social sensitivity, and philosophical reflection.

The collection features poems that address human suffering, injustice, faith, and hope. Through his verses, Kranjčević expresses compassion for the oppressed and marginalized, while simultaneously questioning universal themes such as the meaning of life and spiritual redemption. His style is characterized by a wealth of metaphors, symbolism, and rhetorical figures, which makes his poetry deeply emotional and intellectually challenging.

The poem "Angel of Pain", after which the collection is named, symbolizes spiritual strength and compassion in the face of human suffering. Through the figure of an angel, Kranjčević shows how meaning and spiritual elevation can be found in pain. This poem, like the others in the collection, reflects the author's ability to express deep human emotions and universal truths through poetry.

The collection Angel of Pain represents a significant contribution to Croatian literature, offering readers an insight into Kranjčević's philosophical and social thought. His poetry still radiates relevance today, encouraging reflection on human existence and moral values.
