Ana Paula Inácio
(Portugal, 1966)
Biografie
Ana Paula Inácio was born in Oporto and currently lives on the island of Terceira, in the Azores, where she teaches philosophy. She has thus far published two books of poetry, both in the year 2000, as well as a book of short stories. Other poems have appeared in magazines and anthologies. On first reading her poetry appears to be an inexpressive account of banal, everyday events in mostly rural settings. The account tends to be elliptical, however (e.g. in ‘tomorrow i’ll buy some red trousers’), creating a poetic tension that lures the reader to participate, though this discreet poet does not actively reach out to her readers.
