This paper is an attempt at interpretation of her poem Brodski, written after the death of the Nobel prize winner. Brodski is not only a farewell and a tribute, but also an extraordinary encounter with the poet, his work and his legend, as well as a “conversation” about existence, metaphysics and esthetics.
