Martin Bührig: The Other
22.09.2021 a 19:00
We look forward to the book launch of The other by the author Martin Bührig on September 22 in the Franz Leuwer bookshop in Bremen at 7:00 p.m.
Martin Bührig's poems belong neither to daily political poetry nor to political poetry in general. They stand in the centuries-old tradition of poetry of private concern, which is inherent in all people who live in their respective situations and times.
The poems are addressed to a you. They are love poems. And the diversity of love is reflected in the abundance of images that become metaphors: the river, the wind, the sky, the flight of swallows, the shadow, the dream, the stranger.
