Ann Cotten

She generally writes (and speaks) in Standard Austrian German and introduces linguistic innovations.

[2] Some of Cotten's poems have been translated into English and published in journals like burning deck (USA).

In 2010 she collaborated with visual artist Kerstin Cmelka in a book called I, Coleoptile[3] containing original English poetry and film stills, published by Broken Dimanche Press.

The book Lather in Heaven,[4] published by the same editor in 2016, assembles her work in English up to date, as well as some selected translations from the German.

[8] Since 2023, Cotten has taken on co-editorship (with Sandro Huber[9] and Gerd Sulzenbacher) of the bi-yearly journal "Triëdere" for theory and literature.
