Preface . . . About "Unpaired" by Eliza SegietIn 2018, Eliza Segiet surprised the readers with a complete poetry book dealing with issues related to war, especially with the experience of the Holocaust, which she previously only signaled in her works. As one can see, these topics are still indwelled in her, demanding a lyrical outlet. For this reason, another poetry volume was created, supporting the thoughts and emotions of the previous one.Everywhere we will be / the past will be with us - with this reflection Segiet opens the "Unpaired". This thesis is a known one in the works of the author of the "Magnetic People". The poet is convinced that what has shaped us, has its source in history. However, in this book, it's not just about getting to the roots, but rather about giving voice to those who for obvious reasons have lost it. "Unpaired" is a kind of lyrical biography of an individual - the Other, a poetic chronicle documenting the fight for each subsequent day of life. Unpaired is primarily a poetry of questions. Countless documents, reports, literature are not enough to understand why the human can be a beast. It was also not enough to write dozens of works (by poem and prose) to vent one's emotions, cope with grief, or find even a shadow of explanation. Segiet constantly returns to this stifling question - in this volume the author also asks it several times: "why?" ("what for?", "in the name of what faith?") and will still not find an answer. Besides, there are many more issues that torment the poet-philosopher. [...]
