This set includes all 20 pamphlets from UDP’s 2020 Pamphlet Series. We turned to the pamphlet for an engagement at once sustained and ephemeral, seeing in it — to use Lyn Hejinian’s words — “a sense of a newsgram, a sense of immediacy, unashamed of its staples.”

2020 Pamphlet Series Authors

The 2020 Pamphlet Series offered commissioned essays on subjects close to UDP’s commitments — collective work, translation, performance, pedagogy, poetics, and small press publishing — each offering a different approach to the pamphlet as a form of working in the present.

Authors included: Mirene Arsanios, Sergio Chejfec, Don Mee Choi, KUNCI Study Forum & Collective, Iris Cushing, Simon Cutts, Nicole Cecilia Delgado, Adjua Gargi Nzinga Greaves, Dimitra Ioannou, Sibyl Kempson, Claudia La Rocco, Aditi Machado, Chantal Maillard, Tinashe Mushakavanhu, Sawako Nakayasu, Tammy Nguyen, Okwui Okpokwasili and Nadine George-Graves, Aleksandr Skidan, Magdelena Zurawski, and Steven Zultanski.

Praise

Use without simple utility, generative purposelessness, bold ephemera, manifestos and histories and tracts: Ugly Duckling’s 2020 pamphlets are a trove of possibility and provocation, with nothing less than this ambition for “radical transformation” at their core. An archival sensibility, they suggest, isn’t about finished history; these pamphlets offer the present twenty courageous jolts.
— Zach Savich, Cleveland Review of Books
Reading [the pamphlets] together is nothing short of an education in poetics, in the industry of small press publishing, the politics of translation.
— Sam Buchan-Watts, The London Magazine
... beautifully made mini-collections of essays, poems, treatises
