Das Ungewisse ist Konkret

"The uncertain is concrete". "Reality is a strange word". "Preserve our senses". "In dreams not thought". ... Bremer's poems approach the space behind our certainties. In seven chapters, this volume gathers poems and short prose. It is about the question of the carrying capacity of language, about the world of childhood, about our relationship to nature and to ourselves, about life with disabilities, about special forms of existence and about the experience in dreams? And again and again, texts revolve around the question: What is poetry? The author questions the ideas that we commonly refer to as "reality". From a fundamentally questioning attitude, the texts unfold their effect. They rarely appear coded, often rather casual and sober. Answers are not to be found. From page to page - more questions, more contradictions, more uncertainties - laconic, poetic, full of tension and - concrete.

Voices about Fritz Bremer and Das Ungewisse ist Konkret

"What I admire most about Fritz Bremer's poems is how finely the scenes are observed, how contemplatively the surface of reality is looked at - certainly also for one's own benefit - how precisely he describes what he perceives, how profoundly turned into words. The texts invite us to trace the meanings behind the surfaces, and even to question ourselves and our own existence anew.

- Volkmar Aderhold

"The poems are formally exciting, they experiment, play, ponder, go meta-level and on dear earth."

- Sabine Peters, writer
