"Mónica De la Torre’s kinetic, agitated, self-conscious, and super-smart collection warns us, delightfully, 'let’s not overthink this,' even as it aspires to many 'an optical conundrum / psychoactive puzzle.' The purposefully uneven, sometimes bilingual free verse does not so much occupy territory as sprint back and forth—ties knots, unravels and ravels nets— to tally up its 'in-between state,' taking place as it does between Mexico and the U.S., between a heritage of radical experiment and an urgency of saying."—Stephanie Burt, Academy of American Poets "By presenting the reader with twenty-five different translations of the same poem—which deliberately raises questions about what it means for multiple poems to have 'sameness,' or to come from the same 'source' poem—de la Torre implicitly argues for the translations as a sort of palimpsest or layering-over." —Connor Fisher, Colorado Review "Repetition Nineteen is an interactive book of opportunity and possibility, a spirited exploration of the cultural differences of the use of language. How much is too much or too little to speak or write, or is this unquantifiable and more dependent on what is said? Which parts of a work should we illuminate or eliminate to convey a certain effect? Language in any form is a versatile gift, and de la Torre presents it to us, wraps and unwraps it, each time with a new balance and resonance."—Bethany Mary, Vagabond City "Simply one of the most unique collections of contemporary poetry, Repetition Nineteen is focused on translation as communication, confusion, displacement and opportunity."—Karla Strand, Ms. Magazine "Via English and Spanish, De la Torre explores the relationship between all languages, their translatability and the interpretation ability of artificial intelligences such as the speech recognizer in Siri."—Terras Mag 



"An essential read for anyone interested in translation, Repetition Nineteen combines object lessons and treatises, ultimately asking whether any act of replication can be faithful, or if every act births new creation. Through humor and experimentation, de la Torre makes the philosophical playful and the playful profound."—Emily Pérez, RHINO



"This book is a playful, warm, smart and simplemente pinche genial exploration of language via translation—its rhythms, shortcomings, architectures, and possibilities. Mónica de la Torre’s bilingual brain allows no room for platitude or complacency, and reawakens our curiosity for everything it contemplates."—Valeria Luiselli "'Heads up, false friends!' This is the carnival of (mis)translation. Mark the clues 1-5 and merrily go round and round a Spanish poem that is not there. You don't care. You're having too much fun. Then time for revelation and analysis: the original poem and the mechanics of the carrousel. Notes on method, on translation in general, the bias of machines, a delightful aside on Cervantes. So many ways of exploring the space between two languages! Lastly, 'Replay' documents a playful workshop, i.e. invites you to join in. Don't hesitate!"—Rosmarie Waldrop "When received genres of living are no longer sufficient, one can begin to imagine new ways of relating that are as ethically driven as they are delightful. Enter Mónica de la Torre’s Repetition Nineteen, which allows the many-chambered heart of translatory practice to reroute the detritus of techno-nationalism, monolingualism, fixed origins, and originals. Conceptual, comical, deeply personal, moving somewhere between borders, between the serial and the multiple, the paratextual and the metatextual, this book constellates languages to show us how they touch us every day, in every media, in each mode of writing—translation, mistranslation, critical inquiry, autobiography, public performance. Like Eva Hesse’s Repetition Nineteen III, where an array of translucent forms, each a subtle variation of a form and thereby slightly irregular as each of us, we are invited to form as a way of feeling in all its forms. We are reminded that 'different types of love are possible.'"—Christian Hawkey "To begin, Mónica de la Torre is dope. Prose, poetry and the annals of workshop as installation cohabit here as an evolving unit of systems that unearth not only the absurd but just how much popular songs might share space with soccer tournaments. De la Torre is just as concerned with the precision of recounting events, the rendering and extraction of new texts informed by Vicuña and Yépez, adventures into Google Translate, the global impact of Siri, and other marvelous wonders via Emojiland as she is with where Spanish has embedded itself in the North American mind. Out of order or from front to back, the discourse is evident, right on the money, and right on time. There is no one way to read Repetition Nineteen. Granted, this wonder may finally be the book I need to finish my book."—LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs
