(German)

(translated)

The German writer and physician Uwe Tellkamp on Bernig's new novel "Eschenhaus": "[...] The artist Jörg Bernig has referred to the political issue and all the informers to where they belong. That is not only exemplary in human terms. Such a book from all the attacks that Attitude snooping, deriving from the base is an achievement in itself in the actual, the artistic achievement. The book is a masterpiece.[…]I lived with the characters, their cautious, doubtful truth, which may be ignored or dismissed, but remain - the prophecy convinces with enough reality. "Eschenhaus" is a novel whose format and aesthetic qualities one should be able to appreciate even if his worldview contradicts his own. Bernig has succeeded in a coup, a book that will last."
