If it was hard to write on my own, I could at least learn the craft by impersonating others. The time spent with these poets was just as enjoyable as the poetry. This generation was the first to open itself up to U.S. influences in literature and culture. For instance, they caught on to T.S. Elliot, Ezra Pound and especially a confessional poet like Robert Lowell. But the movies and pop culture were also influences.
Peruvian poets provide a different take on the country.
