Where Everyone Leaves, Never to Return is a captivating collection of poems in which Czech poet Bronislava Volková, a jongleur of contemporary verse, masterfully combines voice and nuance as she saunters through love, loss, mortality, and eternal life. With a sharp wit, her verses render playful catechisms of why "a loving God can make an unloving man " but they also dive deep into self-discovery, achieving, even if just for an instant, the hard-earned right to a "joyous spirit of inner being." Her work is a testament to her life lived in full--a diverse and all-encompassing experience.
