You. Lovepoems & posthumous love poems

August Stramm was among the most innovative poets of his time, creating a style of extreme intensity and concentration. His small legacy stands comparison with the international avant-garde. ‘You. Lovepoems’ celebrates his poetic achievement in memory of his passing in September 1915. The translations bring out the erotic tone of the originals while keeping their flow alive. ‘You’ aims to convey the „inner experience” captured in the poems, and transfer their “heart” to the listener.
