about the author

Triin Paja is an Estonian living in a small village in rural Estonia. She writes to mirror the beauty and the terror of the world around her: fragments of poems glimpsed in cities and fields, open markets and dusty homes, in the sky and rooftops. Writing becomes memory. Her poetry has appeared or is forthcoming in The Androit Journal, Portland Review, Entropy, and Prairie Schooner, among others. She also writes and publishes poetry in Estonian.
