Nadja Küchenmeister (born 18 April 1981 in East-Berlin)[1][2] is a German poet and writer.
Life and work
[edit]Küchenmeister grew up in Berlin where she still lives. She studied German studies and sociology at the Berlin Institute of Technology as well as creative writing at the German Institute for Literature in Leipzig. She has published poems and prose in numerous literary magazines and anthologies. Also, she has been a lecturer at the German Institute for Literature, amongst others, and works for the radio writing documentaries and radio plays. Her first poetry collection, Alle Lichter (All Lights), was published in 2010 followed by Unter dem Wacholder (Beneath the Juniper) in 2014 and Im Glasberg (In the Glass Mountain) in 2020. In collaboration with its permanent editor Matthias Kniep, she was the co-editor of the German "Jahrbuch der Lyrik" (Poetry Yearbook) in 2022.[3]
Critical reception
[edit]According to reviewer Thomas Steinfeld, Nadja Küchenmeister draws in her poetry collection Im Glasberg (In the Glass Mountain) on literary traditions such as fairy tales, whereby her verses show a great confidence not only in the poetic expression but also in an everyday world as a reservoir of poetic transformation. In her dialogic poetry, Steinfeld encounters something "childlike" such as may also occur in adults when reading fairy tales, insofar as there is no sharp distinction between the self and the work, between reception and creation.[4]
