For 40 years, Aunt Lute Books has published works by authors so often overlooked and actively excluded by the literary canon and by the publishing industry, centering women, members or the LGBTQIA+ community, and people of color. For 40 years, Aunt Lute has fought for its existence, transforming from a small underground press to a joint publisher with Spinster Ink to a nonprofit organization. For 40 years, Aunt Lute has championed the voices of those who have been silenced, creating spaces through public programming for people to see themselves in literature and in the literary community. What will the next 40 years look like?
The nonprofit intersectional feminist publisher that has published Gloria Anzaldua, Audre Lourde, Alice Walker, Judy Grahn, Leanne Howe, Melanie Kaye/Kantrowitz, Paula Gunn Allen, and so many more, Aunt Lute has been a pioneer in the small press world. And our staying power over the course of 40 years is a testament to the need for the work we do, if not to the ingenuity of literary activists.
Aunt Lute titles include the first U.S. collection of Filipina/Filipina American women writers (Babaylan), the first collection of Southeast Asian women writers (Our Feet Walk the Sky), as well as a number of translated texts (most recently Rosa Montero's Beautiful and Dark). Our bestsellers include Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza and The Cancer Journals: Special Edition, titles used in classrooms throughout the U.S. and around the world.
We are honored to host this special reading that will feature Ginny Z. Berson, Julian Delgado Lopera, Veronica Sandoval, ire'ne lara silva, and Zenju Earthlyn Manuel.
Help us celebrate our anniversary. Join us on Wednesday, October 19, 2022 at 6:00 pm Pacific for a special reading.
