Tear Gas

The poetry of Ronalds Briedis, appropriately for a young person, is witty, ironic and with an exquisite touch of lyricism – a combination that gives this volume its special charm. It is his first volume of poetry, the result of a long period of work.

Jānis Rokpelnis: The poetry of Ronalds Briedis presents a rarely-encountered organic blend of intellectuality and spontaneous feeling. He is a typical urban poet. We often regard Riga as the only truly urban centre in Latvia (maybe Liepāja too), but Ronalds Briedis’ native town is Jēkabpils, and the patriotism of the people of Jēkabpils is not only very strong, but also very urban in character.Source: neputns.lv
