»Hartmut Lange deserves being read with particular attention because he clearly differs from loud drummers, such as Grass or Boll, on the other side of the Rhine. One feels reminded of the plays by Maeterlinck and Wedekind.«
»The master of linguistic stringency.«
»His novellas are master narratives about the magical force of shadows creeping up unnoticed.«
»A minimalist with far-reaching effect.«
»The fragile elegance of his style is unmatched in contemporary literature.«
»The master among the fantastical rationalists.«
