TAK Erzinger

TAK Erzinger (CGS’94, CAS’95) of Zurich, Switzerland, is a poet and an artist. She is studying creative writing at the Writer’s Bureau. Her poetry has been published by The Curlew, Cirrus Poetry Review, The Beautiful Space journal, Mojave He[art] Review, the Origami Poems Project, The Rising Phoenix Review, and many more. Last year she began a walking pilgrimage through Switzerland, on St. Jacob Way. She writes that her recent book, Found: Between the Trees (Grey Borders Books, 2019), is “a chronicle about a life interrupted by mental illness. Its poems are a reflection of how love, nature, and hiking nurtured and fostered an injured soul suffering from acute childhood trauma and PTSD, leading to a path of redemption.” Learn more at www.greybordersbooks.jigsy.com/TAK-Erzinger.
