Having neglected to write anything of note on the Ingeborg Bachmann Prize for upcoming writers during my absence, please allow me to make up for it by linking to a charming account straight from the horse's mouth on the blog of the upcoming publishing company Peirene Press (scroll down a bit). I'm looking forward to Peirene's first book, F C Delius's Portrait of the Mother as a Young Woman, translated from German by Jamie Bulloch.
You can read Martin Chalmers' translation from the winning piece by Jens Petersen here (and a small amount of jiggery-pokery will take you to the other texts too).

Hi Kathy,
thank you for linking to Peirene and my spiel on the Bachmann Preis. Your blog is a gem. I've put it on the Peirene links list.
(by the way: it's Peirene not Pereine)
Oops, so sorry. I'll correct it right away.
Katy
