THE CALL

The newly founded organisation "Vienna Lit" is currently collecting original, unpublished prose and poetry contributions in English for their anthology Vienna Views that is to be published by °LUFTSCHACHT in autumn 2006. Vienna Views aims to present texts by people who have come to Austria from a different cultural background and lived here for a while, and which demonstrate views of Vienna that somehow throw a new light on the city and challenge what Austrians are perhaps taking for granted.

THE BOOK

It is out now and sitting on my bedside table for review, time permitting. I truly like it, from what I have read so far.

I reckon "vienna:views" is also some sort of "Gangway" into the Austrian capital from other cultural backgrounds. Highly recommended for English speaking Vienna visitors, residents, and expats like myself.
