Stella Pierides

Literature, Art, Culture, Society

About

Posted by stella On December - 3 - 2009

Welcome to my website and reading room blog.

Here I blog about themes of interest and relevance to my work as a writer. Art, Literature, Society, Culture, Spirituality are the main signposts that provide a guide to my writing landscape.

I grew up in Athens, Greece. Now I divide my time between London and the pre-Alpine Bavaria. This European background underpins my work in the pursuit of meaning.

I write prose and poetry. My poetry and short stories have been included in anthologies, in print, online magazines and elsewhere. I have co-edited Even Paranoids Have Enemies (Routledge, 1998) and Beyond Madness (JKP, 2002) and published articles and reviews in other books and journals.

Forthcoming novel Alexandrias 40: In the Shade of the Lemon Tree

Pottery and yoga are my main “hobbies.” I also enjoy walking around the Bavarian lakes and rivers, or strolling along the Thames. And of course I read. A lot.

I am member of English PEN and the North London Writers’ Group Word for Word

Thank you for visiting.

      breakfast-

      a hen gathers her chicks

      under her wings

      cold snap -
      a stray dog bares his teeth
      at the wind

      waxing gibbous
      this catfish stays
      in the deepest pool

      bare tree
      in its core dreams
      of apples
