Shakespearean scholar rewrites the story of Love in a speculative translation of Petrarchan erotica.
Kat Addis is an artist and PhD candidate (at NYU) in renaissance literature, currently writing a dissertation about slavery and race in early modern European epics. Space Parsley (the87press, 2021) is Kat's first full-length book of poetry.
Debut collection of mistranslations of Petrarchan love poems by Kat Addis, a Shakespearean scholar attuned to the hidden erotic energies of the Renaissance. Each poem speaks through character, bringing dramatic, theatrical, ritual and gestural performance to the page. These experiments in form and translation ask the reader to stay for their erudition and ceremony.
