      In 1994 in Wroclaw, Poland. Artist Tadeusz Lipski confesses to a murder, claiming his crime was committed for love. He shares his cell with Miler, a man also born in Wroclaw, and while awaiting trial, they exchange memories of living in a country overwhelmed by oppression, corruption, and the legacy of German occupation. Miler’s life has revolved around the black market; he is one of the “true artists”of crime. Tadeusz’s crime has been to live the life of an artist. He found love with the beautiful Zuzanna, who seduced him as he immortalized her in his painting “The Horizontal Woman” —but Tadeusz also found deceit, political intrigue, and murder. The Horizontal Woman is a novel not only about Poland, from Hitler to Solidarity, but about love—of country, of art, and of a woman.

      The Horizontal Woman
    • Moderný špionážny thriller v štýle románov Johna Le Carré sa odohráva v Československu v období Zamatovej revolúcie. Napriek fiktívnemu príbehu je veľmi realistickým opisom života po Dubčekovi - všadeprítomná paranoja a ohliadanie sa cez plece sú na dennom poriadku. Temný a komplexný obraz odvrátenej strany Zamatovej revolúcie je plný neviditeľného zločinu a nezodpovedaných otázok.

      Ausgehend von einem textanalytischen Kommentar des «Meridians», der Georg-Büchner-Preisrede Paul Celans, sucht dieses Buch die poetologischen Grundsätze Paul Celans darzulegen und ihr Verhältnis zu seinem Dichten zu präzisieren. Herangezogen werden nicht nur alle bedeutenden Prosazeugnisse Celans, sondern auch mehrere Gedichte und Übertragungen, um das Ineinandergreifen von poetologischer Aussage und dichterischer Formulierung zu belegen. Dementsprechend wird die weitgehende thematische Einheit des Celanschen Werkes umrissen, die sich im Sprach- und Metapherngebrauch abzeichnet und vor allem in der Suche nach Gott gründet.
