Bára Hladík : part five

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

I always come back to Jorge Luis Borges. There is something about his work that is so layered and magical. Ficciones is a huge inspiration to my work and I will come back to those stories my whole life. The labyrinths of meaning and mystery that he creates leave you feeling whole and empty at the same time. His work does what literature should do, it reminds you of the magic of everyday life.
