"Search for L. in..." is the first poetry collection

by Lisa Minaeva, a poetess, director and video artist, who explores the themes of corporeality and romantic searches in her texts, documenting a young woman's journey through life, looking for Love and instead finding loves, lovers, muses and different sorts

of sexual encounters. What does it mean to be a woman in 2023 in a world where the search for love has taken the form of dating services, and it becomes easier to trust a stranger with your body than to remain emotionally available?

​

"I’m in love with Lisa’s poems, they are fragile and courageous, and the brittle surface of her words is a mirror reflecting the passionate raw female love. Love for love. Love for the body. And for the soul. A savage love. A free love. A sensual love.

A physical love"

–  Aleksandra Aubay, book blogger

"The impulsive and sensitive to the language of modern dating, poems by Lisa Minaeva are about intense emotions, disappointments, and the political context

of love."
