The golden tide

Hintze's book Die goldene Flut , a poetic examination of the past, present and future of the vagant personality, was published in 1987 by Kiepenheuer & Witsch in Cologne. His third purely literary publication after “Zettelalbum” (1978) and “Arctic Hysteria” (1982) was critically acclaimed and translated into several languages.

"What fascinates me about Hintze is the anger, the passion with which he starts from scratch"

- The time

"The final (eleven-page) invocation of Sapphos and her colorful" Thrones eternal Aphrodite "is terrific"

- Süddeutsche Zeitung

“Pindar, Klopstock, Whitman, Rilke, Eliot, Ginsberg, Brinkmann. Hintze's book "Die goldene Flut" belongs to this tradition "

- Stuttgart newspaper

"The multi-ethnic mix of Vienna seems to have had a direct impact on the formal principle of interdependence, according to which the texts of the" Golden Flood "are organized."

- Neue Zürcher Zeitung

"His searches have something in common with the best utterances of Nicaraguan poetry (Cardenal, Coronel Urtecho) or the hurtful informality of the American beatnik movement."

- Granma, Havana

"He has always stood up for and has always praised those who stand for dignity, humility and gentleness, and has fought those who abuse their power to oppress others."

- Van Hoc, Hanoi
