Eleonore Schönmaier : part five

When you require renewal, is there a particular poem or book that you return to? A particular author? 

Adam Zagajewski's Another Beauty. He writes, 

Imagination--that same imagination which brings music and poetry to life--is neither perfect nor self-contained.  How often it errs, veers off course, perhaps especially in our day, when it has taken its cue so often from demented ideologies. It needs to work in consort with honesty, common sense, reason--as long as they don't gain the upper hand.
