With Carlos López Beltrán Pedro edited and translated the groundbreaking anthology La generación del cordero: Antología de la poesía actual en las Islas Británicas (The Lamb Generation) which brought together translations of 30 contemporary British poets (Trilce 2000). His libretto for the opera Marimbas de l'Exile/El Norte en Veracruz was first staged in Besançon France in January 2000 and then travelled to Paris and Mexico. He has also translated Shakespeare's King John into Spanish.
