Breaking Borders
Returns in 2027
Ten years after the original programme, Breaking Borders returns with new writing, translation, conversations and public programming.
New writing across borders, languages and places.
Breaking Borders 2027 brings together writers, translators, artists and cultural partners for a new chapter in Litro’s long-running international publishing programme.
New commissions, translation, conversations and public events will unfold across London, New York and Los Angeles, building on the writers, artists, places and editions that have shaped Litro’s Latin America publishing over the past decade.
Confirmed contributors and partners are already shaping the programme, with new work and events to be announced across 2027.
A programme with a history.
The first Breaking Borders edition brought together fiction, essays and poetry from across Latin America.
Ten years later, that work remains in conversation with a much larger body of Litro publishing: writers, translators, artists, places and print editions crossing years, languages and geographies.
