Kenyon Review, Jan/Feb 2018

Legna Rodríguez Iglesias

4/5 ( ratings)

The Jan/Feb 2018 issue of the Kenyon Review features a special section called “Generation Zero: New Cuban Poetry,” introducing English-language readers to eleven younger poets who transcend the preconceptions and platitudes sometimes associated with the island nation. Think beyond the reductive categories of “dissident intellectual” and “official intellectual,” write translator Katherine M. Hedeen and poet Víctor Rodríguez-Núñez in their introduction to the section, adding that Cuban poetry has rarely been “more varied, innovative, critical, and attractive” than it is today. Also featured in this issue is “Lionel, for Worse,” by David Greendonner, the winner of KR’s 2017 short-fiction contest. Rounding out the issue are stories by the contest runners-up, Kimberly King Parsons and Lorain Urban, as well as fiction by Jennifer Zeynab Joukhadar, Hannah H. Kim, Jessica Roeder, and T.S.Dillon.

Pages: 155
