| Introduction
Franz Brookmann (a penname) was born and grew up in Hamburg, Germany, and currently lives in Seattle, USA. He writes mostly in Low Saxon (Low German) and English. In 1998 he reached second place in the Freudenthal Low Saxon literature competition, and his group of poems under the collective title "Vadderland - Vadderspraak, un annere Riemels ahn Riem" ("Fatherland - Fathertongue, and other rhymeless poems") has been published in Soltauer Schriften, vol. 6 (ISBN 3-85746-148-7). He was a co-winner of the first prize in the same competition in 1999, and his group of poems entitled "elektroonsche elegien - lyrik för de jaardusendwenn" ("electronic elegies - poetry for the turn of the millennium") is due to be published in Soltauer Schriften, vol. 7. In 2000, he served on the prize selection committee of the Freudenthal Association. He can be reached at sasslyrik@netscape.net. |
