Daniela Danz's poetry collection "Pontus," published in 2009, was a sensation, receiving the highest praise and is now in its fourth edition. Just as the author focused on the borders of Europe, particularly in the East, in that work, she now addresses the difficult and almost exclusively encapsulated theme of "V" for fatherland in her new book, which she understands as a transcended homeland. With powerful language and a keen sense of form, Daniela Danz inquires into what holds our society and Europe together beyond what is easily attainable.
