ABOUT THE AUTHOR TATYANA VARENKO. POETRY. PROLOG. LIFE BEGINS

Tatyana Varenko is a contemporary poetess from Kharkiv and one singular event in the art of literature. Though born and brought up in the Ukrainian-Russian environement, Ms. Varenko has transcended her linguocultural DNA and integrated English poetry writing into the proud heritage of the national glory. She creates multiple unrealities where dreams and ideas sprout up across the Universe like the roots of Yggdrasil. Tatyana Varenko writes par excellence like Shakespeare, rhymes like Pushkin, loves like Dante, thinks like Machiavelli, and smiles like Nietzsche. As a professional and scholar, Ms. Varenko devoted herself to public service in public education and public administration at local institutions and authorities in matters of global communication and international cooperation. Author of novels in verse Ordeal (2010) and Elfineness (2014) and laureate of international literary awards, she creatively synthesizes realms, religions, epochs, and civilizations to create her exquisitely sophisticated chefs-d’oeuvre.
