This bilingual version of Farokhzad's only German volume of poetry is being published by Sujet Verlag in its fourth edition.
As Johannes Bobrowski writes in his 1963 epilogue: “I think there is something new in these poems, which should not be obscured by easily identifiable influences […] . That, too, benefits these poems: the melancholy of one who avowedly lives in two countries and between these two countries on a sweeping arc whose span betrays itself in a trembling underfoot.”
