Olga Cunha is a Russian writer and poet based in Portugal. Having walked through her own darkness, she knows that even there, light can be found — and made to shine brighter. This belief lies at the heart of her novels, short stories, and poetry. She writes about people who face depression, fear, loss, loneliness, and difficult choices, yet keep searching for meaning, freedom, and hope. Her books The Architect and Good Offer: What the Hell have been published in Russian and English and are available on Amazon. The Architect, a magical realism novel, won the LitRes New Horizons 2024 competition. Olga also writes and performs her poetry in both languages. You can find her poetry readings on Instagram at @writer_olgacunha.
