Under its editors, Wolfgang Goertschacher and Andreas Schachermayr, Poetry Salzburg has committed itself to publishing contemporary poetry in English, from poets all over the world. Although privately run, it is situated at the Department of English and American Studies at the University of Salzburg.

A small selection of recently-published poets, who have all had volumes published by Poetry Salzburg, will read at this Special Edition event at the Poetry Library. All of these poets are resident in the UK: Frances-Anne King and Alyson Hallett in Bath, Simon Rees in Cardiff, Pnina Shinebourne in Middlesex, Robert Peake and Christopher Jackson in London. Their 'views from Salzburg' are idiosyncratic and original, and they look forward to presenting the original, stimulating and creative work promoted by Poetry Salzburg Press.
