Away! Away! by Jana Beňová
4.0

"Some stories so need telling, that one is forced to constantly look for new listeners - friends, lovers, so that they can tell them that them repeatedly and from the beginning. With all the details, as if they were completely new. Born again."
▫️
A woman leaves her home in Bratislava, Slovakia, hitting the road through Europe. Told in short poetic vignettes, Beňová's character relates humorous slice-of-life occurrences on the road, as well as the people she encounters along the way.

She has an engaging style, employing clever phrase repetitions (the title Away! Away! being her most common) and experimental forms throughout the slim volume.
