Durs Grunbein is the most significant poet and essayist in German
today. No other modern German poet has written from such an
emphatically European and global perspective, and this volume seeks
to present the poet and his work to the English-speaking world in
all their significance and breadth. Written by a line-up of
international scholars and critics, the volume offers highly
readable and wide-ranging essays on Grunbein's substantial oeuvre,
complemented by specially commissioned material and an interview
with the poet. It covers the German and European traditions, and
engages with Grunbein's works in the context of a number of
relevant topics, such as 'memory', 'urban life', 'mortality',
'love', and 'presence'; it also probes Grunbein's sustained
dialogue with the natural sciences and the visual arts.
