Natalia Litvinova (Gomel, Belarus, 1986) is an Argentinian writer and editor of Belarusian origins, working in the fields of poetry and translation.[1]

Life and Career

Litvinova was born in Gomel, Belarus, in 1986. In the 1990s, when she was about to turn 10 years old, her family decided to immigrate to Buenos Aires.[2] She began writing poems inspired by the poetry of Federico Garcia Lorca and the oral tradition, including elements such as stories, jokes, and songs.[3] At twenty years old, she attended a workshop led by the Argentinian poet Javier Galarza. There she put together her first poetry collection, in which she describes certain events that happened in her childhood.[4]

When she creates her work, Litvinova is inspired by authors who write about the experience of war and exile from different pserspectives, as she herself identifies with these themes.[5]

In 2016, together with Tom Maver, she founded the publishing house Editorial Llantén, which is located in Buenos Aires and specializes in Russian poetry translation, both classical and contemporary. She has compiled and translated various anthologies of Russian poets of the Silver Age, such as Innokenty Annensky, Sergei Yesenin, and Marina Tsvetaeva, among others.[6]

She has led creative writing workshops and courses at the Fundación Centro Psicoanalítico Argentino, directs the translation collection at Melón editora[7] and coordinates the section deicated to Argentine letters at Revista Ombligo review.[8] She represented Argentina at the 2015 International Poetry Festival of Granada (Nicaragua) en 2015.[9]

Her poetry has been translated into French and published by the French publishing house Al Manar.[10] Some of her poems have been translated into English and published in literary journals such as Columbia Journal[11] and The Southern Review[12]. She was a featured poet at the virtual PEN America Women in Translation Month reading series in 2021.[13]
