Interview on Romanian journal
Poetul mongol Gombojav Mend-Ooyo s-a născut și a crescut într-o familie de păstori nomazi, unde, după cum descrie el însuși, „viața sa era formată din stepa nesfârșită, cerul albastru și stelele, animalele din jur, caii iuți, cântecul, poveștile populare și caravanele de cămile...”. A început să scrie poezii la treisprezece ani și a publicat peste patruzeci de cărți de poezie, eseuri și ficțiune.
Un iubitor al tradiției mongole, Mend Ooyo G. a fost membru al Comitetului Național Mongol al UNESCO și, succesiv, director executiv, vicepreședinte și președinte al Fundației Culturale Mongole, apoi președinte al Agenției guvernamentale pentru cultură și artă. În timp ce faima sa se bazează în principal pe opera sa poetică, Mend-Ooyo este apreciat și în calitate de mare caligraf, specializat în caligrafie tradițională mongolă. Opera sa a fost tradusă de asemenea în aproximativ patruzeci de limbi. În prezent, Mend Ooyo G. este Președinte al Academiei de Cultură și Poezie a Mongoliei.
