Who am I? Lecture by Menchu Gutiérrez

As part of the Special: Garden of Hyenas, Menchu Gutiérrez introduces us to Leonora Carrington’s rich universe, where magic, dreams, madness, play, humour and fantasy come together. Carrington’s poetic wisdom blurs the boundaries between the different languages she chose to express her creative life. It invites us to overcome the barriers the rational mind imposes and surrender to the hypnotic pull of her profound metaphors.

Menchu Gutiérrez is a writer and translator whose extensive body of work spans fiction, poetry and essays. Her many prose works include Viaje de estudios, La tabla de las mareas, La mujer ensimismada, Latente, Disección de una tormenta, Detrás de la boca, El faro por dentro and Araña, cisne, caballo. She is also the author of several poetry collections, including El grillo, la luz y la novia, De barro la memoria, La mordedura blanca, La mano muerta cuenta el dinero de la vida, El ojo de Newton and Lo extraño, la raíz.
