Author Information

Alexandra Sashe is a bilingual poet. Born in Moscow in 1976, she studied painting and linguistics. In her mid-twenties she moved to Paris and began to write: at first, prose; then — as an essentialized way of living a language — poetry. The choice of the language, however, was neither her mother tongue (which quickly reverted to rudiments) nor yet French (which, penetrating ever deeper into her intimate being, would soon become her inner speech). Rather, it was the Language itself that had made its choice, as spontaneous as it seemed necessary: English.In 2013 her first collection of poems, Antibodies, was published by Shearsman Books. Around the same time she moved to Austria and settled in Vienna. Shearsman Books published her second collection, Convalescence Dance, in 2018. Days of Earthly Exile followed in 2021, and now Notes on Disparity in 2025..
