Sumario:This contribution focuses on the role of the literary and cultural imagination in constructing alternative imaginaries of the planet which exceed the purely economic dimension of the global and globalization and are open to different modes of knowing and doing. Expanding on Erin Wunker's suggestion of a planetary poetics as an aesthetic mode with which to think and write across multiple spatial and temporal scales and engage with the ethical implications of living in a globalized world, this article looks at Kaie Kellough's Magnetic Equator (2019) and its neo-cosmopolitan tidalectics as planetary poetics.
