 Adrian Lurssen

 

 

 







Born and raised in South Africa, Adrian Lurssen lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. His poetry has appeared in Fence, WITNESS, Posit Journal, The Bombay Gin, Phoebe, Boston Review's 'What Nature' anthology, Poetry Lab Shanghai, Indiana Review, and places elsewhere. These erasures ("translations" of stories by Rudyard Kipling) are part of a larger project, conversations with texts and writers that appeared in the landscape of Adrian's childhood: post-colonial, Apartheid-era, Cold War South Africa. Kipling, Champion of Empire, spent time in Cape Town, living in the home of another Imperialist, Cecil Rhodes.
