Abstract

The poetry of Kamila Janiak is a record of extreme and violent emotions, such as fear bordering on panic, a sense of emptiness and alienation, despair, aggression, hatred, tenderness, and compassion. It is also an expression of the experiences of a sensitive individual in contact with a world full of constant threats. Hence the constant need for vigilance, tension, and readiness to defend oneself, even when love or motherhood is at stake. The six volumes of poetry published by Janiak since her debut in "Akcent" in 2004 create a dark and at times difficult narrative due to the load of predatory aggression supported by vivid, expressive language. The strength of this poetry lies in the accurate recognition of reality and the ability to find a linguistic equivalent for the emotions and experiences it evokes. At the same time, biographical, generational, and socio-political factors make Janiak's lyrical expression read like a document of the era. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
