The first episode of the new season of King’s Eco is now available — a podcast exploring Latin American literature and the voices shaping contemporary cultural conversations.
In this episode, I speak with Juan Toledo, a Colombian writer based in the United Kingdom, about literature, migration, identity, and the realities surrounding access to culture across Latin America and Europe.
One of the most memorable moments of the conversation comes when Juan reflects on the cost of books in Latin America:
«Books in Latin America are very expensive. Buying books is an expensive business in that part of the world.»
From there, the discussion moves into questions surrounding access to literature, social media, contemporary writing, and what it means to build a literary life today.
