(according to Anneli Jordahl in DN 16 February 2001) was the novelist Maja Lundgren (b. 1965), whose novel Pompeji (Bonniers, 2001) has been translated into several languages and (in 2005) nominated for the Italian prize Premio Bancarella. She made her debut as a novelist already in the early 1990s and has since regularly been writing for the literary journal 90tal (later 00tal) and the daily paper Aftonbladet. Other members of the group include Kajsa Bergh, Bruno Jacobs, H. Christian Werner, Helena Boberg and Mattias Forshage. Forshage is a naturalist, as of 2005 working on a dissertation in entomology at Uppsala University, whose poetry in Angående näktergalarna man fann på glaciärisen (Lund: Ellerströms 1998), written in the surrealist tradition of automatic writing, takes its point of departure in various ornithological or geologic observations made at visits to the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm. Johannes Bergmark, mentioned above, works as a musician and composer, has recorded a number of CDs and performed on festivals internationally. Although less active in later years, the group maintains a website, where some of the texts from Stora saltet may be read, and the last text is dated 2002.
