5.25.12 Hinchas are Spanglish speakers who grew up in Latino exurbs (Miami, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, D.C.) and may or may not watch soccer, but know to call it fútbol. Hinchas are the homicidal fútbol fanatics of Latin America. But, they are also denizens of the Americas that don't distinguish between North and South America. |
As such, Hinchas de Poesía is
a digital codex of modern American writing. It publishes the
fiction, poetry, and prose of authors from América.
