Losing Lorca: a mixtape critique

Recto y Verso Editions, Inc. is proud to announce the release of Losing Lorca: a mixtape critique by Olive Esther Kuhn. This project took well over a year to complete, came to fruition through many extensive revisions and originally began as Olive’s Senior Year Thesis for Bard College’s Written Arts & Spanish Studies program. Advanced praise describes Losing Lorca as: …showcasing a powerful new voice in experimental queer criticism and translation. Olive Esther Kuhn’s words-both in translating Lorca’s work and writing their own-are precise and exquisite, and their care for both semantic meaning and aesthetic sensibility are evident in each syllable. Losing Lorca shows Kuhn’s commitment to listening to other voices in imagining a historical queer collective that shifts and bends across time and space. -Natalie Prizel Recto y Verso EDITIONS, Inc. was founded in July 2017 by poet and artist Christian Ortega as a wild experiment to facilitate a creative dialogue between the Literary Arts and the Visual Arts.
