About title:
LYRIC ATTACK offers a selection of 115 pieces of lyric poetry of the years 1971-1998. - REINER UTHOFF, who already translated Jewtuschenko, Zwetajewa and Gelman in the 70ies, does not design the language for the dissecting table. Language is his weapon to vivisect the language of the ruling class that is trying to incapacitate the people hereby. The strength of his metaphorical language feeds of the worries of the human being als well as the problems of mankind. His language is direct and not typical for the genre. Like a magazine put: "his lyric is the synthesis of experience and the dialectics of political reality and the yearning for true pictures of a valid memory"

About title:
With DEUTSCHFIGHTERS - subtitled : "A Tragedy of Errors" UTHOFF created a new literary genre : the dramatic-novel. UTHOFF, for many years the director, actor , producer and chief-writer of the "RATIONALTHEATER", one of the most famous German political cabarets, aimed his 26th production against "theatricality" and "play-acting".With this 4-hour small- talk full of cynicism, wit and polemics culminating in the protagonists (people like you and me) murder of their own children in order to salvagetheir middle-class prejudices into the future with self-destructive ambition blind to cognition and truth, insight or experience, thus coming a small step closer to his aim "away from the theatre".
