[ book tip by Literatur Schweiz ] Eidgenössische Literaturpreise 2012
 
In short aperçus and longer cycles, simple words strung together rhythmically conjure up atmospheres and nuances of domesticity, of the everyday, of urban and rural spaces, of animate and inanimate nature. Chiselled compositions, luminous details from the present and past of the author’s Saxon origin open up country- and epoch-spanning perspectives. This debut volume convinces through its variety of motives and forms as well as a well-composed whole.

(Federal jury of literature, trans. by Simon Froehling)

[ Favourite quote ] «Aber die Worte, die ich liebe

lassen sich sagen mit der Stimme des Bettlers

mit der Stimme von einem

der über kahler Erde die Hand aufhält

und wartet.»
