Conversations with Martn Gambarotta (May - September, 2010)

Martn Gambarotta is one of the most renowned poets of the poetic generation of the '90s in Argentina. During a period of five months we held an electronic conversation via email. In our exchange we explored themes relating to the cultural scene of the '90s in Buenos Aires; Gambarotta's relationship with various poetic predecessors; the political possibilities arising from what has been considered his return to realism; and various objectivist literary strategies, focusing specifically on his texts Punctum (1996) and Seudo (2000).
