Twin Spin - 17 Shakespeare Sonnets Radically Translated and Back-Translated by Ulrike Draesner and Tom Cheesman

The book presents a groundbreaking approach to Shakespeare's Sonnets through Ulrike Draesner's "radical translation," 'Twin Spin,' which intertwines themes of poetic reproduction and cloning. This innovative work has not been previously available in English. Tom Cheesman's back-translation, 'Thymine,' further enriches the experience by translating Draesner's interpretation back into English, creating a unique cycle of reinterpretation that highlights the enduring influence of Shakespeare's poetry across languages and cultures.
