This volume weaves together conversations with nine major Latin American poets, highlighting their relevance to the current panorama and the diversity of their poetics. The conversations combine exhaustive reflection and a conversational tone; reasoning and friendship: they address issues of poetic tradition, language theory, cultural history, literary criticism, identity politics, globalization, the publishing market, affect in language, and the effects of capitalism on language. The importance of the selected poets means that they repeatedly appear in each other's conversations; along these threads, things are said, and the cross-references weave a constellation of Latin American poetics. The collection is a map and testimony to these subjects' vital past (the 1980s and 1990s), to the immediate present, and to the ways of historicizing it.
