In our twenty-seventh issue, poetry takes center stage with a cover feature on groundbreaking Peruvian poet Carlos Germán Belli and a dossier in homage to beloved Maya K’iche’ poet Humberto Ak’abal. We highlight the work of 2016 Neustadt Prize winner Dubravka Ugrešić in our section on world literature from World Literature Today, and in our Indigenous Literature section we feature a special selection of multilingual writing from the new anthology Daughters of Latin America. This issue also includes previews of new books in translation by Brazilian artist Hélio Oiticica and Mexican writer Luis Felipe Fabre, as well as a reflection on translation from Robin Myers and excerpts from exciting books seeking publisher by Leonardo Valente and John Templanza Better.
