The study “Openings into an Ostravized World” examines the poetics and style of the poetry collection Auta vjíždějí do lodí (Cars Are Embarking on Ships), written by Czech poet Petr Hruška in 2007. Hruška’s work is analysed using the line of thought and terminology borrowed from the concept of “faerie” or fairyland, a strange world which cannot be easily left once a mortal has wandered into it; in this case, Hruška’s rendering of his hometown of Ostrava and of its surroundings is seen as such a universe. The study explores how the reader is pulled into the fictional universe through vivid colours, kept “magically imprisoned” by meals and drinks, made aware of where they are by seeing openings into other times and places, and, finally, how the world is made more profound and abstract through the usage of more universal names and sceneries.
