Passant Eltarek

Passant Eltarek is an Egyptian writer. The most magical experience in her life remains having learned how to hold a pen at the age of three. She has never stopped writing since, and her work has lately appeared in Ligea, The Courtship of Winds, and Perceptions; and was nominated for the Pushcart Prize. An avid reader and a language nerd, she's always just a good translated book away from fully indulging in learning a new language. You can find her on Instagram.

    “A question I’ve been asking myself in recent years, and that my work is definitely now asking of my reader, is about the extent to which we are willing to privatize vs publicize different emotions, particularly love and grief.”
