Irina Moga is a trilingual poet writing in English, French, and Romanian, and a member of The Writers’ Union of Canada. The author of six poetry collections, she brings a distinctive voice to contemporary literature, one that interlaces linguistic precision with lyrical depth. Her collection Variations sans palais (Éditions L’Harmattan, Paris) received the 2022 Dina Sahyouni International Literary Prize in France.
Her poems have appeared widely in Canada, the United States, the United Kingdom, and France in publications such as Canadian Literature, carte blanche, New York Quarterly, and California Quarterly. Her work has been nominated for the SFPA Rhysling Award and Best of the Net. Moga’s poetry has been translated into German, Spanish, Korean and Farsi, further extending its reach across linguistic and cultural boundaries.
A hallmark of Moga’s poetics is her fusion of the cerebral and the sensory. Her work is rooted in the belief that poetry is not just an act of expression, but an immersive experience—an observatory of shifting realities, held together by the cadences of language.
