Sina Klein

Sina Klein (born 1983, Düsseldorf) has been working as a poet and translator since 2007 and has published in literary magazines such as “poet”, “lauter niemand” and in “gegenstrophe 5”. In Autumn 2014 her debut book of poems “narkotische kirschen” (narcotic cherries) will be published by Klever Verlag.

Sina Klein’s poems place habitual perception in question and deal with the paradoxes of inner life. Often her poems turn from the familiar “into the unreal, chaotic” (Bettina Hohoff). She is particularly interested in natural structures which are shaped by counteracting forces and self-referentiality.

Sina Klein studied Romance, English and German Philology at Heinrich Heine University, Düsseldorf, where she works.  She was a finalist in the 2012 Munich Poetry Prize and a participant of the Literary March in Darmstadt in 2013.
