  • Summary

  • Born in Kuwait on the 10th of October 1967 to a Kuwaiti father and a Syrian mother, Dr. Shurooq Amin is an Anglophone poet, an artist, a certified interior decorator, and a professor at Kuwait University. She holds a PhD in Creative Writing and an MA in English Literature. She has appeared on several television interviews on Kuwait TV, as well as in various Middle Eastern and Kuwaiti magazines and newspapers. She has given lectures about poetry and writing to school-children in private British schools in Kuwait and regularly holds poetry readings. Her poems, short stories, and paintings have appeared in more than 30 literary and artistic journals. Shurooq’s cultural diversity stems not only from her Middle Eastern upbringing and British education, but from her extensive travel experiences in Asia and the Middle East, North Africa, North and South America, and Europe. She lives in Kuwait with her husband and four children in a feng-shuied, Mexican/Moroccan-inspired home. She is the first Kuwaiti to be nominated for a Pushcart Prize for her poetry in 2007.
