Larisa Vaneeva

Larisa L'vovna Vaneeva (Russian: Лариса Ванеева; born 1953) is a Russian writer.[1]

Life

Larisa Vaneeva was born in 1953 in Novosibirsk.[2]

Throughout the 1980s Vaneeva found it impossible to publish, and was forced to work as a caretaker.[2] As a woman writer Vaneeva even faced criticism for her "menstrual prose". She joined with Svetlana Vasilenko and others to form a feminist literary group, The New Amazons, who published an anthology of women's writing in Russia in 1990.[3]

Vaneeva lives in the Pühtitsa Convent in Estonia and has not written for a long time.[4]
