There is also a large selection of Peruvian poets and a substantial overflow from Russian poets for whom room could not be found in MPT 10.Finally there is our usual range of poets, in alphabetical order according to their country of origin from Argentina to Uruguay and some reviews.MPT is the Fifth International, anyone who wants to change the world and see it changed should join.John Berger
