Sea Glass Circe

About the book

“Then there is the small matter of a poem, to be settled in the hours ahead,” writes Irina Moga in “Sea Glass Circe”.

But how is such a settlement to be reached to a reader’s satisfaction - and how does one go about it?

Through the reinterpretation of feelings and sensorial cues, the author aims to create an opening towards that perplexing and mutual poetic concord.

In “Sea Glass Circe” Irina Moga recasts themes from classical mythology in an everyday setting, in a low key interrogation on the essence of love.

Within the covers of the book, the author pins tiny poems to elicit the reader’s own creative moods in a passage forged through words.

Irina Moga’s poems in “Sea Glass Circe” are meant to be read on a subway train or busy airport, copied on origami paper or embedded in a social media update:

“Time – an echo zipped tight
by dreams.”
