Fiona Sampsonová je anglická poetka a spisovateľka, ktorej tvorba skúma zložité prepojenia medzi jazykom, hudbou a ľudskou psychikou. Jej poézia, známa formálnou precíznosťou a hlbokou introspektívnosťou, sa často zaoberá témami identity, pamäti a kolektívneho vedomia. Sampsonová spája svoj hlboký záujem o filozofiu jazyka s hudobnou minulosťou, čo sa odráža v rytmickej štruktúre a zvukovej kvalite jej veršov. Jej vplyv presahuje aj mimo literárneho sveta, kde sa zasadzuje za kreatívne písanie v zdravotníctve a podporuje medzinárodný literárny dialóg.
