In Field Latin, Hardback Book

In Field Latin Hardback

Part of the The Seagull Library of German Literature series

Hardback

Description

Lutz Seiler grew up in the former East Germany and has lived most of his life outside Berlin.

His poems, not surprisingly, are works of the border, the in-between, and the provincial, marked by whispers, weather, time’s relentless passing, the dead and their ghosts.

It is a contemporary poetry of landscape, fully aware of its literary and non-literary forebears, a walker’s view of the place Seiler lives, anchored by close, unhurried attention to particulars.

With his precise, memorable language—rendered here in compelling English—Seiler has pulled off a difficult feat: recontextualizing and radically personalizing the long tradition of German nature writing for the twenty-first century.
