Sara Shamloo

When she was 21, Sara published her first novel, Gloria, written in a Gothic-Romantic style. Sara is involved in a feminist collective that publishes books. She plays transverse flute, teaches people to read and write braille, and consumes as much culture as possible in her free time. Part of her income comes from teaching creative writing.
Sara lives in an apartment with her guide dog.
She finds it frustrating not to know whether she will be allowed in to theatres, concerts or even coffee shops because Swedish laws against discrimination do not include guide dog users. But she chooses not to let her visual impairment take up too much of her thinking – there are so many other things in life that are more fun.
