" ...The Worlds of both music and lyrics which are intefering all the time, at least in my opinion, are one of the most interesting and most stimulating sites in the Croatian World of Intermedia, today. It means that Lidija Bajuk should be heard and read..."

(Delimir Resicki,  “Knjizevna revija”)

"...verses that can be sung, and some of them are transformed into the sparks of sound giving one charming shivers. A listener who doesn’t pay enough attention, and is above all repeating like the prenietzsche’s parrot the old delusion that the spirit of heaviness is the most trustworthy measure of all the values, might be misguided by the “lightness” of the lyrics. But such a listeners forgets that the verses which dance are much more stars alike then the scattered stones..."

(Maja Gjerek Lovrekovic, a poet) 

    " ...It seems like there is a flow of carefully selected grains, formed into words in this collection of poems. The grains of those experiences where presentiment of eternity. Those grains are forming a rosary, with an audible prayer to the Silence floating above..."
 

(Maja Gjerek Lovrekovic, a poet)

"...Bajuk builds up ringingly sonnets and lovely Alexandrines. She uses staccato cezure with a great success, as well as the charm of the unusual rhyme. She is not afraid of using themes that have been already used by many, attractively composing poems "of the ancient time..."
 

(Tonko Maroevic, “Nedjeljna Dalmacija”) 

  " ...One of the main characteristics of her poetry is using language which almost belongs to dramaturgy. Her poems are philosophical, reflexive, sometimes aphoristic, clear...and very chanted..."

A passage from the book

    "...The custom, heritage, archetipical meanings, old Slavic features, plants, colours...heading to the common source, meating the World of all the continents...it all gives the reader the impression that Medimurje is part of not only Croatia but also of the identity of the World..."

(Maja Matkovic, “Vecernji list”)

"...and what is Kneja?...Kneja is a name for a forest, but also a notion which spreads onto one whole lost World ...That is the World whose harmony we miss so much that it hurts, stumbling across the burdens of today’s neurotic treasures of the so called the civilisation. ...On the other side of all the neurosis and stress, all the smog, nontolerance, the relationships of all kinds that are put out of order, Kneja is somewhere inside us, waiting to be given a chance. Kneja is us. The sooner we realise that, the better chance we have." 

(Velid Dekic, "Novi list")

"...Kneja was published in the year which is, according to some teachings, marks the border of the age of Aquarius. After this year the nonperfect-mean-animal-surrended to-the destructive-history human beign will be transformed into a Godlike human, as a perfect animal. This is all about another myth of the teandric interpretation. But, isn’t the young water-sprite Vancek, the seraphin Aquarius, a symbol of the above mentioned border of the Age of Aquarius..."
