Life
Larisa Vaneeva was born in 1953 in Novosibirsk.

Throughout the 1980s Vaneeva found it impossible to publish, and was forced to work as a caretaker. As a woman writer Vaneeva even faced criticism for her "menstrual prose". She joined with Svetlana Vasilenko and others to form a feminist literary group, The New Amazons, who published an anthology of women's writing in Russia in 1990.

Vaneeva lives in the Pühtitsa Convent in Estonia and has not written for a long time.
