new world covers
“Mundo Nuevo (1966–1971, Spanish for “the New World”) was an influential Spanish-language periodical, being a monthly revista de cultura (literary magazine) dedicated to new Latin American literature. Sponsored by the Ford Foundation, it was founded in 1966 by Emir Rodríguez Monegal in Paris, France, and distributed worldwide. Monegal edited it until 1968 and resigned after a smear campaign related to a CIA scandal. The magazine stopped in 1971 after 58 issues.”

I’m not a big fan of coat hangers, but these are an absolute joy! Too bad you can’t move them up and down like a real joystick though, now that would be fun!
