The intense saturation and density of this poetry make it impossible to read this book in one sitting. It must be taken slowly and measuredly, as each poem requires a longer process of reception.
The title poem, "The Black Rabbit," represents a kind of symbolist maneuver within "real" poetry, because like Baudelaire's "Albatross," it possesses a pronounced unambiguous charge.
The third collection
A Little Before Everything, Long Ago We Are is the eleventh collection of poetry by Goran Rem (b. 1958, Osijek), a poet, essayist, literary historian, and member of the Quorum generation in Croatian literature.
The book contains a selection of Šop's poetry and prose, the play The Eternal Prelude, Šop's letters to Dragutin Tadijanović, and memories of his acquaintance with Francis Jammes. The selection was compiled and the foreword written by Branimir Donat.
The main motifs of the collection are love and everyday life, followed by poetry, and a subtle homage to Zagreb.
