I consider this poet to be a special case in German poetry, which can be widely used as an over-the-counter substitute for Valium.

– Günter Kunert

In his new volume of poetry, Ingolf Brökel's motto at the beginning of the book hints at this: From zero and zero to. That is the flow.

And this is what he stringently conveys throughout the book. Simplicity and diversity show that he is never just a poet.

The book concludes the trilogy that began with the volumes Friedenserhaltungssatz and Existenzminimum, similar to the Hannah Habil series (Miniaturen und Aphorismen) last year.
