From John Keats to contemporary German poetry: Andreas Nohl's essays and critiques have long been among the most consistent offerings in German literary criticism for connoisseurs. This volume was published in 2004 by Häusser Media Verlag in Darmstadt and has been completely sold out for some time. Expanded with two brilliant essays on Mark Twain and R. L. Stevenson, the book is now finally available again for all those who wish to gain a deeper insight into (world) literature or preserve their understanding of it. Featuring critiques from the time and the Neue Zürcher Zeitung.
