Mariam Tsiklauri’s poetry is an example of how traditional and modernistic traits can be merged into lyrical and epic poems. Her poetic imagery, which is rooted in our national literature, is transformed into a natural verbal flow, opening up the hidden depths of the human soul. Our contemporary poetry lacks the genuine, being gripped by the artificial, imitational trends, which true poets like Marian Tsiklauri avoid at all costs.
