Description

Radical Translation features poets and translators published by, or connected
with, Bristol-based small publisher Girasol Press. The afternoon will feature
the poet Alex Cocker’s experimental translations of Michelangelo’s sonnets,
which tease out questions of androgyny, queer desire and the ‘trans’ in
translation, fresh new work from Latinx poet and translator Juana Adcock and
writer and translator Jessica Sequeira, and video contributions in Ch’ol and
Tsotsil from three Mexican poets included in Jukub: Poems from Chiapas
for the Reverse Conquest--Canario de la Cruz, Edgar Darinel García, & Miriam Esperanza Hernández Vázquez.
