Jorge Riechmann conversation with Gabi Martínez, Saturday 17, Guinardó Library - Mercè Rodoreda, Barcelona Poesia 2020
On October 17, the second presentation of 'Mudanza del isonauta -enkráteia' (Tusquets, Barcelona 2020) took place, in this case in conversation with Gabi Martinez, a very attentive reader of the book of poems. The Mercè Rodoreda Library (in the Guinardó, Barcelona) welcomed two dozen poetry lovers (with the capacity limited by covid-19) who were not afraid to face very hard questions, around this one:
how do we face, without despair, the ongoing climate catastrophe? And then, what kind of resources can poetry -together with the rest of the arts, sciences, philosophy- bring to the Century of the Great Test? The exchange was intense, the debate lively and the meeting very vital.
