Bilingual translations ENGLISH into NORWEGIAN of poems by Hannie
Rouweler. Translations by Jostein Saboe. Several themes. About a
previous collection: "Lakes and Gardens contains an unusual
richness of motives, ranging from family situations, childhood
memories and landscape observations to passion, love, loss and
loneliness. Despite these innumerable and varied glimpses from the
life of a mature poet, there is no danger of disintegration of
poetic style or character. All through the volume we are struck by
the poet's ability to let her own distinctive features mould her
visions into verses, features that are characterised by humour,
sincerity, sometimes irony as well as a deep wonder at the small
and big mysteries of life. The images and sceneries in many of the
poems reveal the poet's practice as a painter. In the most intimate
poems we sense the almost physical presence of the poet and at the
same time we have a feeling that everyday words put on a deeper
symbolic message." Jostein Saboe
