Gunther Gerlach: Only when the poppies bloom

From the mystery of near and far.

Gunther Gerlach's new volume of poetry is a poetic hike through fleeting symbols and biographical traces that accompany us in the author's labyrinth of images. The poems open up a cabinet of curiosities of language. Epic power is paired with everyday observations and events. Leaps of thought break the anthemic rhythm and open up unusual perspectives. In the poems we feel both concern and hope about the now and a longing for harmony. The volume is supplemented with graphic notations by the author. Some things seem far away and yet are close.
