Mexican night 

 

2010 is the hundredth anniversary of the Mexican Revolution. To mark the occasion, the Poetry Translation Centre has invited a trio of Mexican poets to the UK - Coral Bracho and David Huerta (both of whom write in Spanish) and Victor Teran (who writes in Zapotec, an indigenous and endangered Mexican language).
 
Coral is translated by Katherine Pierpoint & Tom Boll; David Huerta by Jamie McKendrick & Tom Boll; Victor Teran will by David Shook. As part of a month long tour to Britain's key literary venues, the poets and a selection of translators will be visiting Glasgow and appearing at St Mungo's Mirrorball for an evening of readings and lively discussion.

 

This event is being run in partnership with the Scottish Writers Centre
