Synopsis:

When past, present and future merge together, then you only need a deep breath to be transported from the potato harvest "in Saxony in fields in autumn" into a post-apocalyptic scenery in which "small herds of people" graze in a valley and otherwise the crows only "call out the carrion".

Lars Reyer takes us on a journey along the fault lines of times and places in his new poem volume. Into the gloomy histories and presents of Saxony, where the Ore Mountains "throwing caves are still open" and the urban wastelands begin to glow with inner tension. In the wet meadows and small towns of the Münsterland, on the tracks of the forgotten poet and pharmacist Erich Jansen. Reyer's poems oscillate between narrative impulse and bone-dry abstraction. Karl Marx looks by, Stanley Kubricks Space Odyssey 2001 lets greets and the American emo band Elliott sets the beat to all this. This creates a dense fabric of allusions and references that draws through the texts and in which you never be sure which mythological space is opened in a grey backyard. After magical machines, Lars Reyer succeeds in making places hauntingly noticeable and portray different generations in a simultaneity of the insimultaneous.
