A Summer Evening for Language, Sensuality, and Subtle Depth
With Poetry and Prosecco, the Schleswig-Holstein-Haus Cultural Forum in Schwerin opens a literary space that not only celebrates summer but also refines it poetically. Anke Bastrop reads from her new collection of poems Hidden Landscapes and invites to an author encounter that makes lyric poetry an intense experience.
Poems that Open Spaces
Bastrop's writing moves in a finely balanced language between nature observation, inner worlds, and formal precision. Her poetry does not seek grand gestures but rather that quiet intensity in which images resonate and perception is reorganized. This literary quality of the evening lies precisely in careful listening, in the slow unfolding of meaning, and in trusting the power of the poem.
The Cultural Forum as a Suitable Venue for a Reading
The Schleswig-Holstein-Haus on Puschkinstraße is one of the cultural venues where the atmosphere of readings and a historic ambiance form a unique connection. Centrally located, easily accessible, and known as a house with exhibitions, a garden, and a café, it creates the perfect setting for an evening that combines literature, encounters, and summery lightness.
What Visitors Can Expect
The event begins on Sunday, July 5, 2026, at 6:00 PM; entry starts at 5:00 PM. Tickets cost 10 Euros and are available at the box office of the Cultural Forum. Anyone looking for a quiet, focused reading with poetic depth will find a literary experience here that goes far beyond a classic book presentation.
Anke Bastrop and the Presence of Lyric Poetry
Anke Bastrop is closely connected to the German-language literary scene as an author and translator. After training in the book trade, studies in German studies and journalism, and at the German Literature Institute Leipzig, she works as a freelance author and teacher. Her current collection Hidden Landscapes is published by Verlagshaus Berlin and contemporarily continues the tradition of nature poetry: condensed, reflective, and open to poetic transitions.
This evening promises a quiet, precise, and stimulating look at contemporary lyric poetry. Anyone wanting to experience language as an art form should not miss this reading live at the Schwerin Cultural Forum.
