The Infinite in the Finite: Limitless Limits An Existential Prelude

Originally released in 2007 and now a cornerstone of the poet's expansive body of work, Limitless Limits: Teenage Lust, composed during the formative transition from adolescence to university life, this collection serves as a raw, unfiltered laboratory for the philosophical inquiries that have come to define her multidisciplinary career.

Synopsis: Where Continental Philosophy Meets the Mundane

In this collection, the "dalliance of being" is captured through the eyes of a graduate submerged in the heavy continental traditions of Nietzsche, Blanchot, Lacan, and Derrida. The poems act as a sophisticated bridge between high-concept ontological probing and the "ironically naive" snapshots of an adolescent's everyday existence.

While the narrative voice navigates a "mad world of excess"-exploring the visceral pulse of love, sex, and rock and roll-the observations are sharpened by a precocious intellectualism. The poet attempts to grasp meaning within the "non-meaning" of a chaotic landscape, using poetry to stay afloat amidst the wreckage of a heart in flux.

The Architecture of Grief and the Artist's Evolution

  • The Metaphysics of Abandonment: A profound theme of grief is threaded through the verse, reflecting a soul grappling with the loss of anchors-romantic, familial, and existential.
  • The Socratic Adolescent: The collection poses radical questions-Who? Where? Why?-transforming simple daily encounters into "philosophical portraits" that reveal the infinite within the finite.
  • The Genesis of a Polymath: These poems represent the early creative sparks that eventually evolved into a diverse career spanning poetry, novels, fine art, and music production.

Comparable Voices: For Readers of the Transgressive

The intellectual and emotional landscape of Patricia Elizabeth Arabella will resonate with those who admire:
  • Sylvia Plath & Anne Sexton: For the unflinching examination of the psyche and the architecture of grief.
  • Arthur Rimbaud: For the "derangement of the senses" and the raw, youthful exploration of the infinite.
  • Salena Godden: For the rhythmic, urban existentialism and the defiant "rock and roll" spirit of London.
  • Patti Smith: For the seamless blending of poetry, music, and the visual arts.

About the Author

Patricia Elizabeth Arabella (Pericic) PhD is a London-based poet, novelist, and multimedia artist. Having transitioned from a rigorous academic background in the Philosophy of English Literature to a full-time creative practice, her work now spans the literary and sonic arts. As a music producer and visual artist, she continues to interrogate the intersections of poetic form and continental philosophy, creating a "total art" experience for the modern age.

Limitless Limits remains the essential starting point for readers wishing to trace the evolution of her "epic poetry of the soul"-a must-read for those who find beauty in the friction between philosophical jargon and raw reality.
