But in the hands of Friederike Mayröcker, one of the greatest German-language poets of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, this is a book of a very different kind. It is a wild, vivid journey into a rich, elemental landscape. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e If you follow Mayröcker's path, you find not a comfortable meadow but steep, stony ground--a place where her inimitable voice rings out in all its power and purity. Unsentimental and crystal clear, Mayröcker's writing is driven by a single purpose: to create images of remarkable vividness in a language as free, bold, and fresh as if it were newly invented. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The final installment of Mayröcker's trilogy, following \u003ci\u003eétudes\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ecahier\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003efleurs\u003c\/i\u003e is a book of memory and renewal, protest and revelation--a testimony to the enduring magic of writing itself.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFriederike Mayröcker\u003c\/b\u003e (1924-2021) was among the most influential and decorated German-language poets of the postwar period.
