Allan Wolf Bücher
Allan Wolf ist ein vielseitiger Schöpfer, der die Welten der Poesie, Musik und Bildung miteinander verbindet. Sein tiefes Verständnis für Verse, geschärft durch das Auswendiglernen Hunderter Gedichte und die Erkundung vielfältiger literarischer Landschaften, ermöglicht es ihm, klassische Zeilen in fesselnde musikalische Arrangements zu verwandeln. Er betrachtet den menschlichen Körper als eine unendliche Quelle poetischer Inspiration, ein Konzept, das in seiner Gedichtsammlung über Anatomie zum Leben erweckt wird. Wolfs unverwechselbarer Ansatz besteht darin, verschiedene Stimmen zu verkörpern, wie er es in seiner poetischen Erzählung einer historischen Expedition bewiesen hat, in der es ihm gelang, die Gedanken und Erfahrungen aller Beteiligten authentisch einzufangen.
