Pasja kola

Nataša Govedić

Nataša Govedić's new book of poetry owes its title, as well as its spine – upright and directly opposed to the associated symbolic field – to the ethics and aesthetics of cursing. However, her settings are more complex than those of the domestic progenito

Dog carts, seemingly straight out of curse words, actually belong to the meta-level, the realm of commentary – unnamed curses are parsed, evaluated, amplified for future use. The protagonist of the syntagm is nevertheless crucial, both as an active and as a passive principle. PAS is hidden in each of the entry-chapters of this ludic, lyrical PSEudo-dictionary, establishing its complex, ramified symbolic system. The author's voice, not shying away from grappling with current socio-political issues, defies "dog life": the tacit logic of a muzzle, passive consent, a leash that leads and restrains. His area of ​​struggle, his weapon, his tool: language, a disbanded, curious and supple (but similar to a dog's!) poetic language.
