About the event: Latinx Poetics: Essays on the Art of Poetry collects personal and academic writing from Latino, Latin American, Latinx, and Luso poets about the nature of poetry and its practice. At the heart of this anthology lies the intersection of history, language, and the human experience. The essays not only expand the poetic landscape but extend Latinx and Latin American linguistic and geographical boundaries. Join Daniel Borzutzky as he discusses this one-of-a-kind anthology with editor Ruben Quesada and contributors Sheryl Luna and ire'ne lara silva.
