criticism
For reviewer Thomas Steinfeld, Nadja Küchenmeister plays in her volume of poetry "Im Glasberg" with literary tradition, memories and everyday life. In her dialogic poetry he reads something childlike, since the inner and outer world of the lyrical speaker merge and thus it is no longer possible to distinguish between "I" and "you".
