Queereading, an online international queer reading and creative writing poetry course, starts this October with tutor Maria Jastrzebska.
The course, which is open for all, invites everyone taking part to travel back and forth across borders. Readings will be taken from varied sources, including the 2019 queer issue of The Riveter magazine from the European Literature Network, and Modern Poetry in Translation’s LGBT+ focus issue House of Thirst, and will also include other poets from Audre Lorde to Ocean Vuong and Bev Yockelson.
Selfie, rant, lyric, prayer. Explicit or implicitly queer? You will be exploring the exciting, thought-provoking work of writers using different languages – or using language differently – to inspire and prompt you to ‘translate’, to make anew, your own experience and ideas.
