I am a journalist and art critic. After graduating in literature with a historical-artistic address, I began to collaborate with newspapers, televisions and radios. I have always had a great passion for contemporary art, I have organized and edited catalogs of the most important creative, organized exhibitions both nationally and internationally. Always animated by a strong passion for literature, especially attracted by the classics of the nineteenth century, during the pandemic I started writing my first books of poetry and fiction. They were born thus “A thousand shades of me”, poems with an erotic background, inspired by Bukowsky and Anais Nin; later I wrote the novel "L'amore al tempo del Tempo del Covid" and the collection of poems "Riflessi". The Dantebus publishing house is the first with which I started collaborating and I am very happy, hoping that it will be for both The beginning of a happy and profitable partnership. Many critics, insiders and the public are taking an interest in my works. Honestly, for me it is a success that took me totally by surprise. I write for passion, I have always done it , since I was a child I carried around a notebook in which I wrote down my thoughts. I write because it's the only thing I love and know how to do. Many ask me how much of me there is in my poems. Everything and nothing, because, quoting Oscar Wilde, for an artist fantasy is reality and reality is nothing. My way of observing, understanding and describing cannot be enunciated, codified, poetry is born without asking permission. Only this will always be the strength of art and of those who create: to aspire to immortality.Prof. Sonia Terzino journalist and art critic, writer
