En savoir plus sur le livre
The Seasonal Time Change, although a man-made occurrence, is embedded in nature’s principles. It uses an abstract construct to exact more sunlight for mankind in an over-organized, technological world. In a similar vein, these poems cast an exacting eye on nature, an observant, stringent and very human eye, both intellectually and emotionally; sometimes scrutinizing, sometimes wistful of the brutality of nature, sometimes simply joyful at the wonder of life. Proximity and relationships are ongoing themes in this volume which also bears witness to Michael Krüger’s personal encounters with other renowned poets, writers and artists with whom he has become acquainted during his work as director of Hanser publishing house. With each recurring time change, Krüger presents new joys and losses. He reminds us of our own mortality, of the finiteness of nature and our lacking proximity to it. In doing so, however, he also reminds us of the need for celebration, even--perhaps especially--in times of darkness.
