Klappentext
On a narrow strip of coast in southern Sweden, driftwood towers, rocks and waves become the foundations of a state built from art and language rather than laws, a country that exists more in imagination than on any map: Ladonia, a Baltic micronation.
Through six interlinked cycles of poems and short prose pieces, this collection explores Ladonia as a living experiment in belonging, sovereignty and shared myth. The texts move between ruins, sea, flags and rituals, tracing how a place can come into being when people begin to recognise it and tell stories about it. Six languages-Indo-European, Old Norse, Latin, Greek, English and Esperanto-stand side by side, so that each poem becomes a small border crossing between times and cultures, between ancient history and imagined futures, between micronation and universality.
Readers follow these circles of text through questions of identity, home and recognition: What makes a nation real? Who belongs to it? And how do memory, silence and shared imagination create a "state of recognition" that has no armies, yet leaves a deep mark on those who enter its world?
