Poetry for the New Millennium - by Marta López Luaces (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Anthology of an International Poetry Reading Series at the Jefferson Market of New York Public Library (Spring 2020-Spring 2023) This anthology comprises poems from the Bilingual Poetry Readings series conducted via Zoom, which originated during the pandemic and was sponsored by the Tompkins Square and the Jefferson Market Library in New York City. The Bilingual Poetry Readings via Zoom wants to open a dialogue between present-day experimental poetry from the United States and the Spanish-speaking world. We believe these poets illustrate the great variety of aesthetics movements and voices in the contemporary poetry scenes of Latin America, Spain, and United States.
