The Dirty Goat 20 celebrates two decades of bringing you the very best in international literature. At 338 pages, this anniversary issue is by far the largest Dirty Goat and includes many special features. Six unique and dynamic artists from past issues were invited to share their current work, providing twenty-two color pages of cutting-edge photography, sculpture, paintings and drawings. Full color sketches also accompany Miguel Gonzalez-Gerth's beguiling erotic poem,
Night Flight.
The Dirty Goat visits, for the first time, the Côte d'Ivoire, with an excerpt from Véronique Tadjo's haunting novel,
Queen Pokou: Concerto for a sacrifice. Romania's Mariana Marin and Slovenia's Miklavz Komelj, Ifigenija Simonovic and Maja Vidmar add two more nations to
The Dirty Goat's already impressive roster of countries. Western Europe is also well represented, with poetry from France, Germany and Spain, as well as the short story,
Cousins, by noted Spanish writer Esther Tusquets. The United States is also present with poetry, prose, and drama as well as
Translation: A Seduction, an essay by translator Kelly Lenox. An interview with iconic Brazilian filmmaker Nelson Pereira dos Santos offers a unique insight into this cinematic master. The issue concludes with an index of every brilliant contribution from the first twenty issues.
