“It is clear that his tremendous wealth of imagery springs directly from the subconscious — no amount of rational thought could artificially concoct these startling juxtapositions and vivid metaphors. Zeller’s poems are no incoherent outpourings of random images without theme or meaning, but the expression of a profound philosophical consideration of the human condition and the nature of being.” —Michael Bullock

“The exploration of love has ever been for Ludwig Zeller a geographic conquest. It has been a labyrinth, a no-man’s land, an opening up of mysterious channels, in short, an exploration. But what is unusual in this long celebration of love is his call on the entire universe to collaborate with him, from the lowliest insects and animals to the entire scope of the various flora he has known, the major ingredients of the earth, all conjured in their erotic impact, in their phosphorescences and iridiscences.” —Anna Balakian
