Dyke Affair Issue #02 Launch Party
Join us for the Lisbon launch of Issue 02 of Dyke Affair. The evening will be a chance to celebrate the latest issue, as well as Issue 01. There’ll be readings from both issues, including poetry, essays, and fiction. Event contributors include Dyke Affair co-founder Jade Wilson, and journalist Kate Pasola.
Dyke Affair, a tiny press by and for dykes everywhere, was formed in January 2025, at a time when far-right ideologies are gaining ground and queer people are increasingly targeted around the world. DIY queer publishing that's passed from hand to hand, friend to friend, and lover to lover, is more important than ever, as a tool of resistance and celebration of our lives and voices.
Dyke Affair's editors are based in Dublin, Paris, and Lisbon, though they publish work by dykes all over the world. So far, they have published two issues of Dyke Affair, as well as a poetry pamphlet, allowing them to donate funds to queer mutual aid (The Small Trans Library, Visual AIDS, individual transition funds on GoFundMe, etc).
Copies of Issue #01 and #02 will be on sale at the event.
