Life is like a play, young master Qing Yi. What was distinct in black and white was the chess game; what was indistinct was the human heart. Chess is difficult to decide, step by step, one wrong move, all lost. He was gentle and refined, drunk and free from worldly strife; he wore an open and upright robe, his reputation as a man of the world was just like smoke passing through his eyes; he lowered his eyebrows and gave a slight smile. He was playful, dashing, and elegant; he had a fan in his hand; it was common for people to fight openly or secretly, and they would look down on him with their heads held high. It was originally a different life, yet it became a straight line that led to a completely different end point. Was he going to be reborn from the flames? When the chessboard was no longer black and white, when every single chess piece was imbued with the hearts of the people, vividly displaying the word "chess", the chessboard would no longer be a chessboard, but a formidable game.

That Inna Kogan is a pulmonary specialist comes as no surprise after reading her work. Inna's poetry is concerned with breath on many levels-the breath of life, the breath of the soul, the breath of individual being. Her poems travel inward on a journey of self-discovery and outward to the reader on a path of spiritual enervation. Inna is not afraid to tackle dark components of her psyche-denial, depression, self-centeredness and crippling fears. Her poems ask difficult questions both of others-family, friends, lovers-and herself. Answers are transitory, fluid as breath, leading to deeper and deeper questioning. In addition to her own work, Kogan also presents translations of the poetry of well-known Russian psychiatrist Vladimir Levi. Levi's poems explore similar themes with a unique sense of humor, wit and stylistic language. To read Inna's poetry is to encounter a passionate literature in its most honest, uncorrupted state, like breathing pure oxygen. On This Path will open readers' hearts and minds, and move them further on their own explorative paths to wisdom.
