Earnestness meets linguistic wit meets boundless imagination: In this book of poems, Ulrike Almut Sandig embarks on a journey through the thicket to a dreamlike, imaginary south. „Ich wünsch mir kein Dickicht mehr / in uns hinein, nur noch um uns herum.“ (“I no longer wish for a thicket / inside us, only around us.”)
