Познат на милиони по света със своята сценична сила и провокативна лирика, Тил Линдеман е и поет с над 20-годишна творческа история. В 100 стихотворения той създава свой собствен поетичен свят - плътен, тъмен, чувствен и безкомпромисен. Темите, които Линдеман изследва, изграждат неговия космос: природата, тялото, самотата, насилието, любовта, злото, животните, болката, красотата, езика, смъртта, секса. Поетът играе с класически поетични форми, стихове, народни песни, броилки, балади и винаги намира своя собствен тон, в който съжителстват черен хумор и ирония, сурова откровеност и неочаквана нежност. 100 стихотворения е ... |

Wilde's only novel, first published in 1890, is a brilliantly designed puzzle, intended to tease conventional minds with its exploration of the myriad interrelationships between art, life, and consequence. From its provocative Preface, challenging the reader to believe in 'art for art's sake', to its sensational conclusion, the story self-consciously experiments with the notion of sin as an element of design. Yet Wilde himself underestimated the consequences of his experiment, and its capacity to outrage the Victorian establishment. Its words returned to haunt him in his court appearances in 1895, and he ... |
