| book description |

Kerstin Hensel is one of the most prolific, versatile and influential authors in contemporary Germany. Her unique literary voice owes as much to her character, background and biography as it does to its dialogic openness to other voices. This is the first book to examine in detail Hensel’s correspondences and interactions with other authors as well as with literary schools, traditions, and models, delineating her various intertextual practices. Covering all literary genres, the volume provides both overviews and close readings of selected texts. It finishes with a part on translation which includes English versions of a cross-section of her poems. Kerstin Hensel ist eine der produktivsten, vielseitigsten und einflussreichsten Vertreterinnen der deutschen Gegenwartsliteratur. Ihre einzigartige literarische Stimme verdankt sich nicht nur ihrem Charakter, ihrer Herkunft und ihrer Biografie, sondern auch ihrer spezifisch dialogischen Offenheit für andere Stimmen. Dieses Buch bietet umfassende Untersuchungen von Hensels literarischen Korrespondenzen mit anderen Autoren sowie mit literarischen Schulen, Traditionen und Vorbildern, und erhellt somit ihre verschiedenen intertextuellen Praktiken. Der Band deckt alle literarischen Gattungen ab und enthält sowohl Überblickskapitel als auch detaillierte Analysen ausgewählter Texte. Er schließt mit einem Übersetzungsteil, der unter anderem englische Versionen eines Querschnitts ihrer Gedichte enthält.
