The Salzkammergut (or "Salt Chamber Estate") is a region in the Austrian Alps that is rich in natural resources, history, and culture. This volume of poems, which stems from a journey that the poet and his wife took to the area near Hallstatt there in May of 2009, pays tribute to its strangeness, grandeur, and awesome--if sometimes tragic--beauty. Verses by the poet himself go hand in hand with those by Austrian poets to celebrate the Salzkammergut in all its wonder and mystery.
