About:
José Eugenio Sánchez is the author of four collections of poetry and coauthor of several more, as well as being a well-known performer and the recipient of numerous awards. His book, galaxy limited café, was a finalist for the 2010 Jaime Gil de Biedma International Poetry Prize. Originally from Guadalajara, he lives and writes in Monterrey, a couple hours drive from Mexico's border with its neighbor to the north. Sánchez identifies himself as an "underclown," and his aggressively playful work eagerly engages both pop and high culture with irreverence and insight.
Anna Rosen Guercio is a translator and poet. She lives in Los Angeles and her literary work has appeared in or is forthcoming from journals such as The Kenyon Review, Pool, Eleven Eleven, Faultlines, Painted Bride Quarterly, eXchanges, and Words Without Borders, as well as several anthologies. She holds a BA from Brown University, an MFA from the University of Iowa, and is a doctoral candidate at the University of California, Irvine, writing a dissertation on translation studies, poetry, and world literature.
