When the Golden Disc Closes Its Eye

Joy and peace, life, light, silence, and death. Hand in hand with the reader, Mariendal walks through nature and the rich diversity of life, using precise, small words. The poems stand calmly in the varied moments of life, both beautiful and painful – and even there, always with a shimmer of hope.

“The poems are life-affirming and convey harmony, gratitude, and joy. These are the kinds of poems we need!”
– Cand. philol. Janne Kristin Øiberg

“Experience the poetic universe of Karen Selma Mariendal and let the joy of life shine anew for you.”
– Ph.D. Elisabeth Sommernes

The book contains a foreword by Janne Kristin Øiberg and is illustrated by Gunnel Maria Kvisgaard.
