BRADU, Fabienne. A country without a passport. Octavio Paz and France. Lit. mex [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.2, pp.155-170. ISSN 2448-8216.  https://doi.org/10.19130/iifl.litmex.29.2.2018.1134.

The text reconstructs the relationship between Octavio Paz and France from his childhood until his death. It shows how France was a magnet for intellectuals in the Mexican poet’s generation and how his sense of belonging to that country solidified through his ten-year stay as a diplomat in Paris. Unlike many other Latin American creators, Octavio Paz was not considered as an object of study, but as a subject with whom French intellectuals maintained direct dialogue. The review ends with the work as a translator of modern French poetry which Octavio Paz pursued throughout his life.
