    [synopsis] => "Moments of Reflection" ("Chwile zamyślenia") is a meditation through poetry on how we often get distracted from the things that really matter. Barbara Bukowska dreamed of being a writer for most of her life. But as with many people, she neglected her calling because she never felt she was good enough.

This collection of poems is a personal journey of discovering her own long hidden powers of expression. Written near the end of her life, the poems recall memories of place in a manner reminiscent of the attics of Bachelard or the reveries of Proust. Bukowska recalls her childhood and the wondrous times spent with her grandfather in Mrzygłód and Sanok, Poland. Memories of the old house filled with the special fragrance of a particularly beautiful linden tree standing nearby give rise to acknowledgments of loneliness and longing. The silence of time is another strong theme for Bukowska that echoes throughout the poems. For anyone who has ever wondered about the meaning of what we leave behind, this book is a gentle reminder that everything matters if we just pay attention. Forward written by multi Award winning actress Beata Poźniak.
