Description

In addition to a dynamic collection of poetry and fiction from around the world, Two Lines 31: Hauntings brings together a selection of contemporary Mexican fiction that responds to the ways violence, loved ones, memories, and transformations can haunt our imaginations.

New stories from Alberto Chimal, tr. George Henson, Luis Filepe Lomeli, tr. Katherine Sutton, Daniela Tarazona, tr. Lizzie Davis, Milena Solot, tr. Robin Myers, and Pergentino José, tr. Thomas Bunstead explore Mexican life from new, sometimes disturbing, but always arresting angles. These Mexican writers, virtually unknown to American readers, are set to burst into contemporary literary landscape as a new generation of Latin American voices.

Also in Two Lines 31: Hauntings is a selection of international literature from new voices around the globe: Boaz Izraeli's story “Architect,” translated by Jessica Cohen, explores a bleak intellectual trap in modern-day Israel, while Shaheen Akhtar's Beloved Rongomala, tr. Shabnam Nadiya, presents adventure in historical Bangladesh. Poetry from Greece, Myanmar, Peru, and Switzerland present landscapes full of linguistic energy and hope.
