Fenyő D. György - Útikalauz a vershez (2021)

Here is a book that will make you want to read only poems from now on!

Through the works of 25 contemporary and classical Hungarian authors, the Guide to Poetry shows that poetry can and should be discussed, and leads one to realize that poetry is indeed for and about everyone.

György D. Fenyő has many years of experience as a teacher, which is why he knows exactly how to speak well to young people. It encourages joint thinking and fills the reader's head with non-biographical information. Poetry helps you to feel and understand, it does not make you answer. And if that wasn't enough, Dóra Gráf's wonderful illustrations will surely arouse the interest of young people. And once they have taken the book in their hands, there is a straight path to falling in love with the poems.
Don't say you don't have time to read a poem, a poem is two minutes, three minutes, everyone should have that much time, and anyway, nothing in the world is worth the time spent like a poem, because in those two minutes your life can change if you let the text touch you, if it hits you at the right moment and in the right state of mind, it really reprograms your brain, more than any drug or any medicine, pulls you out of reality, shakes you up, brings you back to you, for a moment it flies into someone else's brain , you will think differently for a flash, you will see and feel something that you would never have seen or felt otherwise, and afterwards this experience will stay with you, you will remember the moment in a way that you would not have remembered it otherwise. Don't say you don't understand, it's enough to read it, you don't need to analyze it, it's enough to pay attention to it, let it work, to have an effect - György D. Fenyő's great book is exactly for that. It shows you how poems work and how to use them to help keep you sane and help you live.
