Works

From the beginning it is "extreme loners, self-isolating outsiders and crazy people from all norms" that fascinate him. Beyses' stories and novels have one thing in common, namely: “They are narrative experiments of the most daring caliber.” - “half self-talk, half necromancy.”

Quotes about Beyse

"He does not roll out a cozy carpet for the readers, but chases them through a confusing mirror cabinet"

“Jochen Beyse's main character is radically present in her desperate self-dissolution, and the ghostly fear that torments her refers to a present-day attitude to life in a networked world, which in its pictorial duplication and the techniques of acceleration seems to constantly disintegrate or disappear before our eyes .
