About the Author
Chase Berggrun is a poet and writer whose work delves into the intersections of identity, trauma, and transformation, often drawing from personal and cultural mythologies to explore the fluidity of self. With a background in creative writing and queer studies, Berggrun's poetry challenges conventional narratives, blending visceral imagery with intellectual rigor to confront themes of violence, desire, and resilience. Their debut collection, R E D, marked a bold entry into contemporary literature, earning acclaim for its innovative structure and unflinching honesty. Berggrun continues to push boundaries in their craft, contributing essays and poems to leading journals while teaching workshops on experimental poetics. An advocate for marginalized voices, they reside in New York City, where the city's pulse informs their evolving body of work.
