A Conversation About Poetry

The Shared Language of Poetry: Mexico and the United States, edited by Eyda M. Merediz and Tanya Huntington, is an anthology were fourteen scholars and poets from Mexico and the United States attest to the power of contemporary poetry. Through essays on topics ranging from “Poetic Breadth in the 21st Century” to “Translation in a Global World,” from “Representing and Defying Affect through the Body Poetic” to the “Linguistic and Geographic Remappings of Indigenous Poetics,” these invigorating texts are complemented by an anthology of verse published in the original languages, as well as in English or Spanish translation. The volume’s intellectual and linguistic diversity offers a vibrant picture of the power of poetry today and for all time.
