“Book Descriptions: A beach polluted by caustic sludge, a forest strewn with gun emplacements, a mirror projecting an émigré’s haunted reflection: these are some of the borders contemplated by Wolfgang Hilbig in Territories of the Soul/On Intonation. Published during the twilight years of the GDR, these collections find the renowned East German writer grappling with tectonic changes inside and around him. Moving between lyric poetry, personal essay, and gothic horror, Territories of the Soul/On Intonation showcases Hilbig's remarkable versatility and depth of feeling.” DRIVE
