When I read It, I had a feeling of entering the author´s mind. A feeling of vulnerability and nudity. A not altogether positive feeling. The book should be read from start to end, because it is a story. But then you need and want to go back and explore, taste the words and find your favorites. To read it also was something of a nostalgic travel. Written in 1969 it is of course part of that era´s political and cultural influences even though it´s much much more than that. I read it in swedish but I am thinking of rereading it in the original language danish - here´s a taste of it: ”Det. Det var det. Så er det begyndt. Det er. Det bliver ved. Bevæger sig. Videre. Bliver til. Bliver til det og det og det”.
This indelible sense that life matters is the “it” of Christensen’s long philosophical poem. At it’s heart is a view of human life interwoven into galactic, social, sexual, economic, and linguistic experience. Is opgenomen in
it is the masterwork by Danish poet Inger Christensen ("a true singer of the syllables," said C. D. Wright), often cited as a Nobel contender and one of Europe's most revered poets. On its publication in 1969, it took Denmark by storm, winning critical praise and becoming a huge popular favorite. Translated into many languages,it won international acclaim and is now a classic of modern Scandinavian poetry. it is both a collection of poems and a single poetic epic, forming a philosophical statement on the nature of language, perception, and reality. The subject matter, though, is down to earth: amoebas, stones, and factories; fear, sea urchins, and mental institutions; sand, sexuality, and song. The words and images ofit recur in ways reminiscent of Christensen's other works, but here is a younger poetry, wilder, and crackling with energy. The marvelous and complex use of mathematical structure init is faithfully captured in Susanna Nied's English translation, which won a 2005 PEN Translation Fund Award.
