The Fire was Here
註釋Anna Enquist, psychoanalyst, musician, and writer, has published five collections of poetry in her native Holland and across Europe. All have achieved great popular and critical success. Much of Enquist's poetry is autobiographical; the three themes of her adult life--music, psychology and motherhood--are treated often and in depth, and personal details are common. Enquist has said that although the pressure of family life extinguished any hopes of becoming a professional pianist, nothing has made her as happy as motherhood, and this collection takes us to the heart of Enquist's world, for these are poems about mothers and children. "The Fire was Here is the first selection of Enquist's poetry available in English; the poems have been drawn from all five collections and are reproduced in chronological order.
