Intervenir/Intervene

By Dolores Dorantes and Rodrigo Flores Sánchez

Poetry. Latino/Latina Studies. Translated from the Spanish by Jen Hofer. Bilingual Edition. INTERVENIR/INTERVENE is a searing, tender, unflinching collaboration between two Mexican poets--Dolores Dorantes, who lived in Ciudad Ju rez for 25 years and now has political asylum in Los Angeles, and Rodrigo Flores S nchez, who lives in Mexico City. INTERVENIR/INTERVENE asks questions no one should have to ask: in a climate of state- sponsored violence, what kinds of speech, writing, relation are possible? We are being intervened. How do we collaborate? How do we resist?
