Michael Krüger Unter Dichtern
Book Premiere, Reading and Talk
‘Even a short sentence has a long history,’ notes Michael Krüger in his latest work. Krüger has spent his life engaging with poets – publishing their volumes with Hanser and other publishing houses, printing their works in Akzente magazine, awarding them the Petrarca Prize, which he co-founded with Nicolas Born, Bazon Brock, Hubert Burda and Peter Handke. In conversation with Paul Ingendaay, Krüger reflects on his encounters with poet friends.
