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.
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.
In Leskarc's poems, we will quickly find themes about art and creativity, the Croatian language and folk customs, and national heritage.

The main motifs of the collection are love and everyday life, followed by poetry, and a subtle homage to Zagreb.
Fusions in search of fragments of identity, in a combination of verses and prose fragments, are at the forefront of this collection.
