# Ute Erb

> Ute Erb is a German writer, poet and translator. She grew up in the German Democratic Republic ; but when she was 16 she escaped illegally to the west, without telling her parents, and ended up living in Cologne "with friends". She was driven to it, as she later explained, "by a homesickness for a Germany that simply did not exist". It would not be the last time she would display a well-honed rebellious streak.
