It’s just a few days before I go back to Vienna again, so it was with great pleasure that I was able to spend a couple of hours in a cafe in Glebe with the writer, Rudi Krausmann. Rudi has just come back from Austria where he presented his latest book, News, at Alte Schmiede in Vienna.
News – Fast Flowers, Long Journeys, Cold Funerals is a limited hardback edition published by Macmillan Australia and contains poems in English and German by Rudi Krausmann and drawings by Sydney artist, Garry Shead. There’s more on Rudi at the deletions blog and you can listen to some of the poems from his 2002 book, Maps, here.
