New Poetry Book – Ploetzlicher Nebel (Sudden Fog)

This must be my first real real poetry book with real poems – not just a collection  of spoken word poems. Mostly written during the pandemic, dealing with a new definition of borders, of possible movements, of examining the near surroundings, the subtle changes. No translation yet…but I hope there will be some in the future:

On Words and Reality – Book presentation Nato Ingorokva (Frankfurter Buchmesse) 21.10.2022

I am proud to present fantastic Georgian poet Nato Ingorokva at Frankfurter Buchmesse, Friday, Oct. 21., 4pm at the Georgian National Book Stand. Nato is a uniquely interesting poet not only because she lived and studied in the Ukraine for a long time, but also because she doesn´t trust the words, she´s trying to look behind the words and also into things that cannot be said. Talk in German, Georgian, English
