Georg Heym (1887-1912) was a German writer and poet who is ranked among the most important representatives of early literary Expressionism.
Moloko Plus, run by Ralf Friel from Schönebeck, has just published a selection of dark and stark expressionist prose pieces by Georg Heym and combined them with 13 drawings by Dutch artist Ben Schot. The resulting edition, beautifully designed by Robert Schalinski and offset printed in a limited run of 150 copies, is both elegant and ruthless. An iron fist in a velvet glove.
