Our twenty-fifth issue opens with special features on Ecuadorian writer Mónica Ojeda, a defining voice of the contemporary Andean gothic, and on the dynamic world of Latin American children’s literature. We also present interviews with Edmundo Paz Soldán, Mikeas Sánchez, and Juan Gabriel Vásquez, a reflection on the legacy of Afro-Venezuelan poet Miguel James, poetry in Nahua and Tsotsil, exclusive previews of upcoming books in translation by María Fernanda Ampuero, Carmen Boullosa, and Irma Pineda, and three previously unpublished poems by Rafael Cadenas, winner of the 2022 Cervantes Prize.
