Huba BúzásMy Dissonant Bells

Even from the cycle titles, it is clear what themes we are dealing with and that Huba Búzás is clearly speaking in his lyrical, acerbic voice. The first cycle of poems is based on the theme of the First World War, and the poems are structured around the events and fates of Hungary and the world experienced in private life and learned through history. The second explores and analyses the next world war, which has already been experienced directly in many cases through the medium of poetry. In the cycle entitled 'reality is tearing me apart' we encounter the international and Hungarian cataclysms of 1945-1956-1968. The last cycle is not really a cycle at all, since it contains only one poem followed by a longer autobiographical and philosophical run of lyrical aestheticising thoughts in prose, sometimes with essay or essay elements.
