Description: Using the visual storytelling PechaKucha format with timelines and historical photographs and by staging our work, we aim to seduce attendees to share the uses and voyeuristic pleasures of letters. We will draw from a poem-letter combination by Lorca and from a new volume of intimate letters exchanged among three formidable twentieth-century Spanish-speaking women—Mistral, Kent, Ocampo—and their associates from Madrid during the Second Republic up to the Cold War.
