One author from this country wrote of a place "where each day I go down deep to nourish secret syllables." Another poet from this country described the title creature as "Love's arrow on earth, which our stagnant ditches or the dried streams of the Pyrenees lead back to paradises of fecundity." That poem is about the "siren of freezing oceans, who leaves the Baltic to reach our seas." Those poets published their work in collections like The Sunken Oboe and The Storms. A semanticist from this country wrote an experimental novel in which the narrator is only able to recall things he has read after awakening from a stroke. That novelist's penchant for conspiracy theories is seen in his newest novel The Mysteries of Prague, as well as one in which Diotellavi and Belbo conspire to make the Plan.
