Greek novelist and poet

Eleni Ispoglou

I was born in Preveza, studied civil engineering in Thessaloniki and lived in London for many years. I have been writing since I was a teenager, but only found the courage to share my writing in 2018. My novels are about women who learn to listen to themselves.
