Atrium Verlag | Arche Literatur Verlag | WooW Books
Atrium Verlag was founded 1935 in Switzerland in order to be able to continue publishing Erich Kästner's work, who was by then a forbidden author in the so-called Third Reich. Since the beginning Kästner's children's books are a world-wide success story and continue to fascinate readers in more than 25 countries all over the world. Moreover, he has written famous poem collections and adult novels reaching a broad audience. Atrium has started to publish more children's books that share Kästner's spirit and instantly connect with our young readers. Furthermore, Atrium publishes important contemporary fiction, mystery and non-fiction. WooW Books is focussed on children's books for readers aged 6-11, ranging from timeless classics to modern adventures and unconventional stories. As the name suggests, the program stands for special and surprising children´s literature that conjures a »wow-feeling« while reading. Arche Literatur Verlag is a traditional literary publisher that started in the 1940s with authors such as Friedrich Dürrenmatt, Max Frisch and Gottfried Benn. Today Arche publishes novels by outstanding international and German writers, telling stories about the rich variety of human relationships. Arche aims to reach women readers of all ages, both through content and through clear cover designs. The core of the brand is the “rich variety of human relationships” – deliberately targeting a female readership that feels addressed and entertained in a unique way by Arche.

September 2017Zündkerzen
Gedichte
by Durs Grünbein
Zündkerzen ist eine Sammlung von 83 Gedichten in den unterschiedlichsten Formen, variierend in kurzen und langen Zeilen. Es sind Traumstücke, Redepartikel, Prosagedichte, zerbrochene Sonette, Sequenzen wie aus Unfallprotokollen. Jedes dieser Stücke entzündet sein eigenes Leuchten, seine kleine oder größere Epiphanie. Hier schreibt ein Dichter, der keiner Schule angehört, keiner modischen Strömung – ein Beobachter des Realen, neugierig auf die diesseitigen Dinge, hellwach für ihr Verschwinden. Zwei Langgedichte ziehen mächtige Stützpfeiler in die Struktur der Sammlung – reine Anschauung einer südlichen Metropole: Das Photopoem, Elegie vom musealen Leben: Die Massive des Schlafs. Es gibt Liebesgedichte, erotisch direkt, ebenso wie Momente der Verlusterfahrung als Demontage der Sonettform. Ein Gedichtzyklus über die Pinie nähert sich reiner Lautmusik und wird zum Verbarium, in dem die Buchstaben tanzen. Zündkerzen sind Dinge, keine Ideen und erst recht keine Konzepte.
