Ilya's Blurbs |
About me:
I am a poet, writer, and software developer residing in Melbourne, Australia, with my wonderful wife Melanie and a marvelous little baby daughter named Lillian.
I was born in Soviet Union. While living in Soviet Union, the papers said I was Jewish. When my family came to America when I was 12, I suddenly became Russian. And when I came in 2006 to Australia to marry Melanie, I finally became American. So when people ask me where I am from, I refer to myself as International Man of Mystery.
I've worked, traveled, studied, translated, featured at readings, and known great people. All these combine into worthwhile material for thought and poetry, some of which is on the web.
Enjoy your stay!
