László Nóémi

A leading voice in contemporary Hungarian literature, she is a poet and literary translator who has been shaping the way we relate to language and poetry for decades. In her poems, everyday details, human relationships, and inner questions come through in writing that is sensitive, clear, and precise.

As a translator, she translates into Hungarian from English and Romanian, building bridges between cultures and literary worlds. Her presence at the festival invites a deeper kind of attentionto words, to silence, and to that rare space where what we say gains weight and meaning.
