Right Here is Where it Aches

Heggem, Vilde: Akkurat her er det det verker

Praise for Right Here is Where it Aches:

”Fresh play with language … Vilde Heggem’s debutant poems have a striking graphic expression … The debutant show a fresh vigour in her testing interaction with the language … Heggem’s debutant poems seem to investigate the relationship between things and their names, in an attempt to evoke the language in the language. This language that points to itself at the same time as it points renewingly out at the world and the things.”
(Bergens Tidende)

”The door to Vilde Heggem’s room stands ajar. Show caution”
(Universitas)

”Poetry debutant Vilde Heggem’s visual picture is not like other visual pictures”
(VG)

”Yippee. A strong poetry debut … Heggem’s poems establish their own rules.”
(Aftenposten)

”Good debut poems that field by field map out the existence, thus showing the portrait of an individuation … She is an original voice, and she is, without doubt, here to stay.”
