July 14th, 2025 — Martina Rimbaldo, a gifted Croatian poet, photographer, and artist, has made her solo literary debut with the release of her first poetry collection titled “Muza zvana Agonija” (The Muse Called Agony), published by the renowned INKZOID FOUNDATION.
This powerful and emotionally charged collection is a deeply personal exploration of pain, longing, resilience, and artistic awakening. Known for her contributions to various international literary platforms like Nightingale & Sparrow, Oddball Magazine, and Ponder Savant, Martina now takes a bold step into the literary spotlight with her first standalone work—a poetic odyssey that reflects the intimate landscapes of the human soul.
Through raw and evocative verses, “Muza zvana Agonija” invites readers into the poet’s inner world where agony becomes not a weakness, but a transformative muse. Each poem in the collection offers a delicate balance of vulnerability and strength, illuminating the emotional spectrum of the human experience.
Published under the banner of INKZOID FOUNDATION, a global literary platform celebrated for nurturing poetic talent and meaningful art, the book represents a milestone not just for Martina, but for contemporary European poetry as a whole.
Speaking about her debut, Martina said,
"This book is my truth, my survival, and my voice when words failed me the most. Agony, for me, is not the end—it’s where inspiration begins."
“Muza zvana Agonija” is more than just a poetry book—it is a tribute to the power of art as a form of healing, a testament to the endurance of the human spirit, and a literary haven for all who feel deeply and search for meaning between the lines.
The book is now available through INKZOID FOUNDATION and is already gaining praise for its fearless honesty and haunting beauty.
