Andreas Unterweger
/Austria, 1978
Andreas Unterweger, born in 1978 in Graz, Austria, lives in Leoben. In his stories and poems, he tells of the big in the small—sometimes ironic, sometimes melancholic, often hopelessly romantic, and usually all of these at once. For a long time, he was a poet writing novels; now, as the editor of the legendary literary magazine manuskripte (since 2020), he presents his first poetry collection. He has received numerous awards and grants, including the 2009 Literary Prize of the Academy Graz and the manuskripte Prize of the Province of Styria in 2016. His most recent works include So long, Annemarie. A Novel (2022) and Haus ohne Türen. Poems (2025), both published by Droschl.
