Another Planet, Another Writing: Literature and Climate Change

The Centroamérica Cuenta Literary Festival has been celebrating its tenth anniversary since Wednesday in the Dominican Republic as a space for the projection of Ibero-American letters and reflection on some of the challenges facing contemporary societies: journalism, freedom of expression, populism and democracy. The event, promoted by the Nicaraguan writer and Cervantes Prize winner Sergio Ramírez, which today became a touring event due to the persecution of the regimes of Daniel Ortega and Rosario Murillo, is the scene of a conversation this Saturday on the links between writing, literary creation and climate change .

In collaboration with the festival, EL PAÍS broadcasts this dialogue between the Salvadoran writer Jorge Galán, the Mexican Jorge Comensal, the Spanish Gabi Martínez and Lorena Arroyo, director of América Futura, the sustainable development department of EL PAÍS America, will deal with the presence of dealing with The climate as a leitmotif of contemporary literature. Like love, death, freedom, justice or identity, the environment and the consequences of global warming are having an increasing impact on the work of prose and poetry writers. This dialogue reflects on the works that address the grand challenges of climate change and its implications for writing.
