Quotes
“The utopia of a young, innovative literary publisher, which Daniela Seel has now realized, was considered by the prepotent experts to be completely naive. Now a thirty year old publisher shows us that literary passion can move mountains. "
“From time to time she still gets the feeling that she is on the wrong side, she says, but you can tell that she likes to carry this burden - and can do it. Because behind her delicate, vulnerable appearance, there is strength and self-confidence. "
