Long description:

The Routledge Companion to Twenty-First Century Latin American Poetry brings together internationally recognized experts to offer a fresh and urgent perspective on Latin America’s contemporary poetry and the culture and politics of the region in the last 25 years.

Delving into the often-overlooked realm of poetic expression, this companion provides a rich and complex assessment of Latin America’s diverse voices and a comprehensive understanding of the genre’s evolution and significance. By focusing on wider tendencies, geographical areas, and a select group of poets for individual case studies, the work gives clear and necessary insights into the recent poetry of this region. Engaging with the work of poets who challenge conventions, this edited collection illuminates the cultural and political landscapes of the last two decades, providing readers with a fresh perspective on Latin America’s rich literary tapestry.

This volume is a vital resource for undergraduate and postgraduate students, researchers, and academics in Latin American studies, cultural studies, literary studies, and related fields, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of poetry, identity, and contemporary Latin American culture.

"One of the distinctive features of poetry is that remarkable essays can be written about it, commensurate with the language and syntax they analyze. In this volume, Ben Bollig and Jorge J. Locane, two of the best and most rigorous thinkers of contemporary Latin American poetry, have brought together a group of critics of the same level of academic excellence. The results are phenomenal. It is an examination of writing trends and the formal and ideological options being considered in the poetry of our time. A crucible of analysis, information, and imaginative surveying, this book is ideally suited to enable poetry to continue speaking, even in a dimension beyond language."

Eduardo Espina, author of The Milli Vanilli Condition: Essays on Culture in the New Millennium and Professor in Latin American Poetry, Texas A&M University, USA

"Comprehensive, contemporary and discerning, this is a book on fire. The organising principle is magnificent: regions that include borders and migrants, tendencies that give equal space to the already visible and the newly emerging, and figures, all of whom are crucial. The three axes cross to create a moving constellation."

Cristina Rivera Garza, Pulitzer Prize winner and Professor in Hispanic Studies, University of Houston, USA
