Beschreibung
Postmortem Lacerations is a visceral exploration of what remains after affection turns violent, after tenderness corrodes into cruelty. These poems dissect the anatomy of intimacy; love, heartbreak, hatred and healing through a scalpel-sharp lens. Each page is blood-soaked incision into the raw tissue of memory, obsession, longing, and grief.
For anyone who has ever bled quietly behind a smile, who has ever kissed the knife and called it devotion, these poems offer no comfort, only recognition.
Autor*in
Lara Gerhäuser
Lara Gerhäuser (b. 2002) writes like a wound that never healed properly, raw, unflinching, and intimate in its darkness. She published her first book, "Psychological Hematomas", in 2021 at the age of eighteen, a bruised and brutal debut that marked her voice as unafraid to confront the grotesque undercurrents of human emotion.
Influenced by the psychological intensity of Dostoevsky and the cosmic dread of Lovecraft, Gerhäuser crafts poetry that feels more like confession than composition. Her work lingers in the spaces between love and violence, often blurring the two into something unrecognizable but deeply human.
"Postmortem Lacerations: An Autopsy of Love and Other Wounds" is her second published collection, a descent into the ruins of romance and the slow, aching resurrection that follows.
She lives between pages, ghosts, and the weight of unsaid things.
