Poetry Writing in New York
In the framework of World Poetry Day, the Cervantes Institute of New York invites you to an evening dedicated to the exploration of the impossible codes of poetry. Carmen Boullosa (Mexico), Lila Zemborain (Argentina), Eduardo Mitre (Bolivia) and Inmaculada Lara (Spain) will share their texts in a reading that offers a vivid portrait of writing in Spanish in New York.
This gathering is an invitation to discover poetry as a space for play and experimentation, but also as a place of rigorous construction, where the word is both a laboratory and a territory of emotion and memory.
Following the readings, the poets will discuss the richness and diversity of Hispanic poetry in the city, addressing its connections to tradition and its dialogue with contemporaneity.
