9th International Sprachsalz Literary Festival
September 2011, Parkhotel, Hall in Tirol
|
|
|
Some 20 or so writers have received invitations to read extracts from their works at Hall in Tirol's 7th "Sprachsalz". "Literature for all" is the message the organisers are seeking to propagate. The readings and talks (free of charge) with authors in the stylish atmosphere of the Parkhotel, Kurhaus Hall, the Ablinger.Garber Media Tower and Wäscherei P (Cultural centre in the psychiatric hospital) will also be a fine cultural event for the many writers, who love this "delightful festival" (Kenzaburô Ôe) or find it simply "magnificent" (Alberto Manguel).
And when you've spent virtually three whole days at the 6th Sprachsalz reading, discussing and celebrating, all you can do is look forward to next year. "More Hall" (Peter O. Chotjewitz) |
