Presse

»This volume is the encyclopedia of a life lived amidst the landscape and amidst all the experiences one can have there. A book that makes you happy.« (Klaus Kastberger, Die Presse)

»Talented Trees by Bodo Hell is a ravishing book. It’s refreshing, as if you were walking down natural and cultural landscapes yourself at Hell’s side.« (Julia Kospach, Falter)

»Bodo Hell is a chronicler, a collector, a recorder, a preserver of the animate and inanimate, which without him would perhaps fall into oblivion. Bodo’s texts are without exception declarations of love, occasionally to people, often to flora, fauna, things, names: There is probably nothing that can escape his literary passion for collecting.« (Wolfgang Kühn, Wiener Zeitung)
