Anne Bøe
Anne Bøe (born 9 July 1956) is a Norwegian poet. She was born in Ålesund,[1] and grew up partly in Tanzania.[2] She graduated from the "writers' seminar" in Bø in 1982, where she had studied with Eldrid Lunden.[3] She made her literary début in 1984 with the poetry collection Silkestein, for which she was awarded the Tarjei Vesaas' debutantpris.[1] Among her later poetry collections are Ildrose from 1989, Sinobersol snø from 1993,[2] and Minimum from 2009.[1] Her collection Frostdokumenter from 2012 was described as giving language to people whose voices we seldom hear.[4]
Typical for Bøe's poetry is her use of rhetorical contrasts, such as oxymoron, paradoxes and antitheses.[3]
