[Cecilie Herfurth · Rating 3 out of 5]

Mine to favoritdigte:

Det første bogstav, s. 46: “jeg ønsker et hemmeligt sprog mellem os / ét der kan standse den krig vi har ført”

Skala, s. 67: “det er i skovene / oktober lugter mest / af oktober”

Virkelig fin og smuk digtsamling. Jeg er vild med de sanselige beskrivelser og naturmetaforerne. Dog kan det til tider blive lidt for gentagende.
