Katerina Gogou did poetry in a time when other "poets" did public relations. Above all, she herself was poetry. Amongst pills, drinks, burned cigarettes, ghettos, betreyals... She was born in Athens. From a young age she worked as an actress in theatre and the movies, mostly in films by the company Finos Films. Her first poetry book was Three clicks to the left and was published in 1978. She also published the books 'Idionimo (1980), The Wooden Coat (1982), Absentees (1986), The month of frozen grapes (1988). As Leonidas Hristakis mentions, Katerina was outside of any kind of publishing and artistic cliques - for this reason you'll rarely see her mentioned by the (deceitful) media. She committed suicide in 1993 at the age of 53. <a href="https://www.last.fm/music/+noredirect/%CE%9A%CE%B1%CF%84%CE%B5%CF%81%CE%AF%CE%BD%CE%B1+%CE%93%CF%8E%CE%B3%CE%BF%CF%85">Read more on Last.fm</a>.
