PEN International :The magazine contains ‘Context: Latin America and the Caribbean'
‘Context: Latin America and the Caribbean', the third issue in PEN International's series focusing on new writing from and about different regions of the world.
This issue contains a diverse range of poems, stories, essays, excerpts and interviews, spotlighting the work of writers from well over a dozen countries; over half the contributions appear in the original Spanish. Two special guest writers have joined us for ‘Context: Latin America and the Caribbean'. Patrick Chamoiseau of Martinique pays homage to the great Martinican poet and politician Aimé Césaire, and one of the world's most beloved poets, Ernesto Cardenal of Nicaragua, presents a new poem. Other highlights include the Brazilian novelist Milton Hatoum on his Middle Eastern heritage; an interview with the Dominican-American Junot Díaz; a short story by Ecuadoran-American writer Niki Aguirre; excerpts from new books including João Almino's novel The Five Seasons of Love; French music journalist Olivier Cachin's Rap Stories (in which he interviews dub legend Lee "Scratch Perry"); the Haitian novelist Jean-Claude Fignolé's Une Heure Pour L'éternité; and unpublished novels from the UK's Robert Collins (set in Brazil) and Canada's Bruno Goulard (set in Guatemala).
‘Found in Translation', sponsored by Bloomberg, is back for the second time, featuring work from Venezuelan, British, Bolivian and Brazilian authors in English, Spanish and French.
