Poetry Reading and Q&A with Andrés N Ordorica
Edinburgh Libraries presents a poetry performance and Q&A with poet Andrés N. Ordorica author of 'At Least This I Know'.
'At Least This I Know' explores ancestry, racism, nationhood, activism and queerness in a journey through childhood to adulthood.
Andrés N. Ordorica is a queer Latinx writer, poet and educator based in Edinburgh. He creates worlds filled with characters who are from neither here nor there (ni de aquí, ni de allá).
His poetry, fiction, and creative journalism have been published widely. In 2020, he was awarded a Second Life grant through the Edwin Morgan Trust.
In 2021, his fiction manuscript was shortlisted for both the Morley Prize for Unpublished Writers of Colour and Mo Siewcharran Prize. He is the author of the poetry collection, 'At Least This I Know' (404 Ink).
