The study analyses the influence respected Czech poet Petr Borkovec (b. 1970) had on the younger Czech and Slovak poets being the editor of their poetry collections, namely Lom (2013) by Martina Blažeková, Oheň po slavnosti (2011) by Kamil Bouška, Sněhy a další (2010) by David Voda, Suť (2007) and Vlastivěda (2010) by Jonáš Hájek, and Co drží Nizozemí (2010) by Viktor Špaček. They and Borkovec share many common features of their respective poetics, such as lyrical description of the countryside and abandoned houses, observational distance, refined formal qualities of the poems, or the change of state as a main theme.
