Amarantha

E. R. Traina is an Italian poet, author and translator. She was born in April 1990 in a Sicilian family in Brianza, a place she endured for more than twenty years thanks to frequent trips to her local library and to Milan, where she fell in love with poetry, literature and theatre.

​

She sings and plays the guitar and the accordion, inspired by Irish folk and Mediterranean and South American music. She wanders around, following her projects or the changing of seasons; sometimes she leaves Europe, but she usually comes back.

​

She loves islands and ports, and beginning her sentences with “but”. But she hopes people don’t mind.
