An uncompromising masterpiece that transforms memory and renewal into a wild world of words. Fleurs-flowers, flower petals-a title that might suggest a gentle world of blooming fields and soft breezes. But in the hands of Friederike Mayr�cker, one of the greatest German-language poets of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, this is a book of a very different kind. It is a wild, vivid journey into a rich, elemental landscape. If you follow Mayr�cker's path, you find not a comfortable meadow but steep, stony ground-a place where her inimitable voice rings out in all its power and purity. Unsentimental and crystal clear, Mayr�cker's writing is driven by a single purpose: to create images of remarkable vividness in a language as free, bold, and fresh as if it were newly invented. The final installment of Mayr�cker's trilogy, following �tudes and cahier, fleurs is a book of memory and renewal, protest and revelation-a testimony to the enduring magic of writing itself.
