Poetry,
Luchterhand Literatury Publishers
Ulrike Draesner’s poems are about the everyday, about love and nature, about the city. They play with forms of poetic tradition. Amazement at the many-sidedness of this world and its laws, about its past and the breath-taking future of the „heavy bodies“ within it — this is transformed into a second voice of the poems, made up of rhythm and word-sounds – a kind of inward music.
„Ulrike Draesner brings the reader new kinds of perception.“
