Publisher's Synopsis
'Dyke's Day, A Holigay' is a multimedia and multi-sensory publication about a surrealist holiday for lesbians, based on an original manuscript by Mayah Lovell. Six lesbian writers come together to create and curate a continuation of Lovell's manuscript, resulting in a full anthology exploring what a holiday for lesbians can look, sound, feel, taste, and smell like. Dyke's Day incorporates poetry, lyricism, fiction, research, sculpture, photography and sound to iterate an ecology of enjoyment for lesbians. Featuring writing by Tahjia Brantley, Maya Martinez, Pau B.C., Adaeze Okere, Fabiola Ching, and Mayah Lovell. Edited by Gabrielle Octavia Rucker, Fabiola Ching, and Mayah Lovell. The Curators for Dyke's Day are Mayah Lovell and Fabiola Ching, two friends and collaborators with practice curating virtual and physical spaces with artists and each other. Our individual practices meet at the intersection of literature and dyke performance, resulting in shared interest to allow lesbian archive to expand and sustain our artistic queer urban community.
