• Resumen

  • In this interview Chilean prose writer, editor and literary workshop director, Pía Barros, describes her recent literary activist project, a trilogy of multi-authored flash fiction collections against gender violence. She explains the project’s evolution from an idea many years ago into a substantial transnational consciousness-raising project, which has spread from Chile to countries in the Americas and Europe. Upon describing the publication process of the Chilean trilogy (including an anthology of over 100 women authors against gender violence, an equivalent collection by male writers, and a third anthology with stories against child abuse), Barros comments on flash fiction’s importance in the digital era, the Michelle Bachelet presidency, and gender violence in the context of global human rights issues.
