Tamara Mitchell works at the intersection of politics and aesthetics in contemporary Latin American narrative fiction. She is presently working on a SSHRC-funded monograph entitled Sounds of the Capitalocene: Violence and Aurality in the Contemporary Mexican Novel, which analyzes literary aurality in recent fiction as a means of responding to and critiquing economic and ecological crises. She has published on sound and listening in peer-reviewed venues like Chasqui and the Revista Canadiense de Estudios Hispánicos. With Prof. Amanda M. Smith (University of California, Santa Cruz), she convenes the Latin American Sound Studies Working Group (2020-present), is editing a special issue on Latin American Literary Aurality for the Revista de Estudios Hispánicos, and is organizing the Listening with the Ears: The Sounds of Latin American Literature Conference.
